IPL 2024: Most Golden Ducks in the League
Veteran keeper-batter Dinesh Karthik has registered the most ducks in IPL history with 17 ducks, followed by Rohit Sharma with 16.
In any format of the game, getting out for a duck is something a batter does not want to suffer. It will be a nightmare for him/her if they fail to get off the mark. Nervousness while performing in big matches, pressure on the batting side after a collapse, facing a world-class bowler – there can be many reasons behind a batter not opening their account.
If so, what if the batter is out on the very first ball that he faces? That's an embarrassing record for one to hold and is not a rare sight in the game of cricket. The Indian Premier League (IPL), which is known for batters taunting bowlers with ruthless batting performances, has also witnessed several players being dismissed for golden ducks. Such are the instances when bowlers absolutely dominate the batters, and they will be over the moon. And, why not?
