Indeed, the IPL is a batter's paradise! Here, the pressure to score quickly often leads to aggressive batting from the moment players step onto the pitch. This pursuit of quick runs and boundaries, however, can also result in batters getting out for 0 runs, commonly referred to as a "duck" in cricket.

In the IPL, where every run counts and matches can be decided by small margins, getting out for a duck can be a nightmare for any batsman. The combination of aggressive batting, poor form, match pressure, and the high stakes of the tournament can lead to such dismissals.
