The Orange Cap and Purple Cap races and Powerplay247 in IPL 2026
By Rohan Mehta, Cricket Analyst
The Orange Cap and Purple Cap races and Powerplay247 in IPL 2026Sports insights · Play responsiblyThe Orange Cap and Purple Cap are official IPL leaderboards for runs and wickets, and Powerplay247 doesn't award or track them. This page explains how those races relate to any player markets that get listed. It doesn't publish a fake leaderboard or an invented 2026 run tally.
What doesn't Powerplay247 do?
Powerplay247 doesn't award the Orange Cap. The IPL site or a sports broadcaster will show runs and wickets. This page won't name 2026 leaders, because they'd be wrong by the time you read it, and guessing them is how these posts turn into spam.
What might you actually bet on?
- A player's runs or wickets in a single match, if Powerplay247 lists the name after the XI is announced.
- Top batter or top bowler in that fixture, again only if the market exists.
- Season-long cap markets, only if Powerplay247 lists them explicitly. Many IDs never see them, so don't assume one exists.
A player chasing a cap can still fail in any one game. Good form is a reason to check the XI, and no reason to empty your wallet. Settlement follows the official scorecard and that market's rules. DLS, abandoned games and substitute fielders can void or adjust some player markets, and your history will show it.
What about fantasy searches?
Cap races come up in Dream11 discussions, but Powerplay247 isn't Dream11. There are no captains, vice-captains or points.
Frequently asked questions
4 questions
Can I bet on the Orange Cap winner for the whole IPL?
Only if that market appears on your ID. If you can't find it, it isn't offered.
Where can I see the real cap standings?
On the official IPL site or a broadcaster's stats page.
Do I need a separate ID for player markets?
No. It's the same Powerplay247 cricket ID.
When do player names appear?
Usually after the playing XI is announced. Betting on a name before then risks picking the wrong market.
