IPL Fair Play Award Winners List from 2008 to 2025

The Indian Premier League 2024 has changed the way cricket is played ever since its inception in 2008. The batting, bowling, and fielding standards have only been going up each season, which has encouraged the introduction of many awards for rewarding individual and collective excellence.

At the same time, equal importance is given to ensuring the smooth conduct of the matches fairly and honestly, with the best team being adjudged the “Fair Play Award” winner at the end of the tournament. The teams get some valuable points for adhering to certain rules -respect towards fellow players, opponents, and more importantly the match officials.

The points are distributed based on three important principles. Two points for a team signify that their performance is good while one or zero points fall into average and bad categories, respectively.

How are IPL Fair Play Award points calculated?

• Each contest has a total of ten fair play points at stake for the competing teams.
• A team gets four points for maintaining the spirit of cricket in the opinion of all the three umpires.
• Showing respect towards the opposition team, respecting the laws of the game, and respecting the umpires are the three factors carrying two points each.

Who has won the Fair Play Award the maximum number of times in the IPL?

The most successful team in terms of having won the maximum number of Fair Play Awards is the five-time IPL winners, Chennai Super Kings. In the last 17 seasons, CSK have won this award a record six times in the 2008, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014, and 2015 editions ,respectively.
