In this article, we will consider the players who hold the highest number of ducks in IPL history.
What is a Duck in Cricket?
A "duck" in cricket is when a batsman gets bowled out without earning even a single run. It is one of the most frustrating ways in which a player can get out. Ducks can happen due to good bowling, bad shot selection, or bad luck.
