The Indian Premier League is a pitcher’s paradise because nowhere else will you see every player, including pitchers, cross the line as soon as you step on the field. However, this needs to be explosive and scoring large totals on the scoreboard also leads to a lack of focus. Add to that lousy form and the pressure of the game, players are regularly disqualified for not being able to run. This is called the duck in cricket and is a nightmare scenario for any tennis player. Today we cover the list of players with the most ducks in IPL history.

Zero running point in IPL
Nothing hurts a pitcher’s morale more than getting fired for not being able to run, especially at the top, who carry the greatest responsibility on their shoulders. Although the average hit time of hitters in the IPL is significantly lower than in other forms of cricket, they still enter the field with the aim of scoring significant runs and making an impact.
Most players come, run as much as possible and leave. Even pitchers are hitting the ball explosively in the IPL, following the T20 format of cricket. Entertainment is a top priority in IPL and nothing excites fans more than a boundary. But this fierce race for influence makes players reckless. They don’t take time to evaluate the pitch or stability, which is a luxury in T20 cricket. Besides, when a batting player is out of quality and form, the pressure of the IPL only increases and they collapse.
World-class famous tennis players were eliminated in their first delivery. This is called duck in cricket, but most people are not familiar with the term. Below you can read the list of players with the most ducks in the IPL.
Player with the most ducks in IPL history (2008 – 2023)
- Sunil Narine tops the list of players with the highest non-running scores in the IPL. The veteran of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) is an all-rounder, possessing incredible bat and ball skills. He has enjoyed success as both a right-handed hitter and a left-handed hitter. Narine shot on every order, but KKR sent him as the opener in the IPL. Either he scored a couple of big hits or he got fired. Narine also hit in the order of medium and lower. He has scored 15 goals in his IPL career, playing in 93 innings.
- Dinesh Karthik, who has enjoyed a successful career recently, also ducked 15 times in the 2017 IPL innings.
- The newest entry on the list, and that one at the top, is Rohit Sharma. The Indian cricket captain is a famous smash hitter and has led his team, the Mumbai Indians, to five IPL championships, but has struggled recently. Sharma collected 15 ducks in 231 plays.
