Jacques Kallis continues to be MVP

March 27, 2010 09:01 IST

Although he fell rather early in the match against Delhi Daredevils, Jacques Kallis is still the most valuable player of IPL3 after the first 21 matches (i.e., as on the morning of March 26) with a MVPI of 360.

The table below lists the top 45 players of IPL3 (with a MVPI of at least 100).

Take a look also at the paisa vasool index (PVI) of these players.

The PVI estimates the amount of money (in US $) that the player is currently earning for every run equivalent scored. Players with low PVI values offer better value to the franchise owner.
