5 Points: IPL Unwritten rules players secretly follow but never talk about

1. Never celebrate too hard in front of a senior player

Younger players avoid over-the-top celebrations near veterans out of respect - even if the moment is huge.

2. Don’t show frustration after being dropped

Players are expected to stay calm, smile, and keep working, even if they strongly disagree with the selection call.

3. Dressing room arguments stay inside

Any heated moment, disagreement, or fight is never discussed publicly - it’s an unspoken loyalty code.

4. Never overstep a star player’s routine

Whether it’s gym time, physio slots, or batting practice windows, juniors quietly adjust around senior stars’ preferred timings.

5. Avoid eye contact during team meetings if you disagree

Players rarely challenge coaches or captains directly in front of the group - disagreements are kept for private chats.
