The IPL is a batter's paradise, where 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 batter 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 scenario for any batsman. The combination of aggressive batting, poor form, match pressure, and the high stakes of the tournament can lead to such dismissals.

In cricket getting out for a duck is generally considered disappointing and frustrating for any batter in cricket, regardless of the format, or even in popular leagues like the Indian Premier League. 

In this article, let's check out the players with the most ducks in IPL history.
