While some players dominate the league, others have had their fair share of early dismissals. Here’s a look at the five batters who have been dismissed for zero the most times in IPL history:
1. Glenn Maxwell – 18 Ducks: Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has the unfortunate record of being dismissed for a duck 18 times, making him one of the most duck-prone batters in IPL history.
2. Dinesh Karthik – 18 Ducks: Veteran wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik also shares this record with 18 ducks in his IPL career. He has now retired from IPL.
3. Rohit Sharma – 17 Ducks: Five-time IPL champion Rohit Sharma has also been dismissed for a duck 17 times in the tournament’s history. Despite this, the ‘Hitman’ remains a powerhouse performer.
4. Piyush Chawla – 16 Ducks: Veteran leg-spinner Piyush Chawla, one of IPL’s highest wicket-takers, has also been dismissed on zero 16 times. He ranks second in the all-time wicket-taking charts of IPL.
5. Sunil Narine – 16 Ducks: The explosive Sunil Narine, who played a key role in KKR’s title-winning IPL 2024 campaign, has also fallen for a duck 16 times in the league. Known for his aggressive batting in the powerplay, Narine remains one of KKR’s most valuable all-rounders.
