IPL Facts: Never got out on 0, still scored so many runs, also won Orange Cap

IPL Facts: The 19th season of IPL is going to start from March 28. The batsman who scores the most runs in this league is awarded the Orange Cap, which is an example of being in consistent form and scoring runs throughout the tournament. It is not within the power of every batsman to do this, because even one bad day can spoil the hard work of the entire season. But there is one batsman in IPL history who has never faced a duck (out on 0). His consistency is amazing and he is also the player who has scored the most runs without getting out on a duck. Besides, he has also won the Orange Cap once.

Record of scoring most runs without getting out on 0

This player is Sai Sudarshan of Gujarat Titans. This 24 year old young batsman has played 40 matches in IPL from 2022 till now. During this period, he has scored 1793 runs at an excellent average of 49.81. His strike rate has been 145.89, which includes 2 centuries and 12 half-centuries. The surprising thing is that in all these innings no bowler has been able to get him out for 0.

Sai Sudarshan had performed amazingly in the last season IPL 2025. He scored 759 runs in 15 matches, which included one century and six half-centuries. His average was 54.21 and strike rate was 156.17. On the basis of this brilliant performance, he won the Orange Cap and became the highest run-scoring batsman. Playing in the opening or top order for Gujarat Titans, he gave a strong start to the team in many matches and played an important role in increasing the run rate in the middle overs.

Even Rinku Singh did not see this day

Apart from Sai Sudarshan, Rinku Singh of Kolkata Knight Riders is the only batsman who has scored more than 1000 runs in IPL without getting out on 0. Rinku has earned a name for his finishing ability and his consistency is also amazing. Rinku Singh has played 59 matches in IPL so far, during which he has scored 1099 runs with 4 half-centuries.
