Who Won The Orange Cap Most Times In IPL History? Check The Full List From 2008 To 2023

Most Orange Caps in IPL History: One of the constants of the IPL since its inception, in 2008, has been the orange and purple caps. The orange cap is awarded to the leading run-scorer of the tournament, and the purple cap is awarded to the leading wicket-taker of the season.

In the case of a tie, that is, when two batters have the same number of runs, the one with the higher strike rate is given preference, while in the case of two bowlers having the same number of wickets, the one with the better economy is above.

So far, in the 16 IPL seasons, there have been 13 different winners of the orange cap. Only once has a player won the orange cap three times, and another one has won it twice, while there were 11 other winners.
