Ahead of the IPL, teams could sign players—particularly from England—for record-breaking sums at the mini-auction. After realizing there were just a few weeks remaining in the series and that fans had already begun uploading various statistics online, we decided on the three players with the most ducks in the T20 spectacular. Sam Curran purchased the Punjab franchise for an astounding INR 18.5 crore, and it was natural to believe it might be overpriced. Mandeep Singh, who has 13 ducks to his credit, is third on the list, which surprised many people by including too many unexpected names.
The top three IPL players in terms of ducks are as follows:
Mandeep Singh
Mandeep Singh has 14 ducks to his ledger, which puts him alongside Indian captain Rohit Sharma. Despite this, the player always gives his all when shown a chance to show off his talents. Mandeep boasts a respectable Indian T20 League record with 1692 runs scored in 108 games.
Despite having a few positive statistics as a competent batsman, the tournament’s joint-highest amount of ducks is a stain on his IPL records.
Rohit Sharma
Even though Rohit has played 227 matches in the championship and has scored 5879 runs with an average of 30.30 and a strike rate of 129.89, he still has a distasteful record of 14 ducks throughout his domestic career.
No one in the world today would question Rohit Sharma’s ability to start the innings, but the hitter hasn’t been at his best in the IPL despite making a few solid runs here and there and a maximum score of 109.
Piyush Chawla
Chawla ranks third on the list with a batting average of 11.68 and 13 ducks. Given his ball-handling statistics in the match, it makes sense that Piyush Chawla, a seasoned Indian spinner, is underappreciated despite being one of the finest spinners in the very contested league. However, despite having a higher average, Harbhajan Singh, Dinesh Karthik, Parthiv Patel, Ajinkya Rahane, and Ambati Rayudu have an equal number of ducks. Chawla’s most famous performance occurred in the 2014 championship game when he scored the winning runs for Kolkata against the Punjab franchise.
