List of Indian Premier League awards

{{Short description|None}} {{Use British English|date=April 2017}} {{Use dmy dates|date=May 2026}} The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a Twenty20 cricket competition based in India. The tournament honours players with several awards at the end of each season. These include the Orange Cap, Purple Cap, Maximum Sixes Award, Most Valuable Player and Emerging Player of the Year, among others.

== Orange Cap == The '''Orange Cap''' is presented to the leading run scorer of each season of the Indian Premier League.<ref name="purplecap">{{cite web|url=http://www.iplt20.com/news/88270/ipl-awards-2017|title=IPL Stats}}</ref><ref name="that">{{cite web|title=IPL introduces 'Orange Cap' award|url=http://www.thatscricket.com/news/2008/04/25/2504ipl-introduces-orange-cap-award.html|publisher=thatscricket.com|access-date=14 May 2016}}</ref> It was introduced on 25 April 2008, a week after the start of the inaugural season of the IPL. The batsman with most runs in the tournament during the course of the season would wear the Orange Cap while fielding, with the overall leading run-scorer at the conclusion of the tournament winning the actual Orange Cap award on the day of the season's final. Brendon McCullum became the first player to wear the Orange Cap,<ref name="that" /> and Shaun Marsh became the first winner of the award. So far David Warner has won the cap thrice followed by Chris Gayle and Virat Kohli who have won it twice. Kohli scored the most runs (973) in a single edition of the tournament in the 2016 season.

The then IPL chairman and commissioner Lalit Modi said of the initiative, "Cricket is often remembered and recorded as statistics and not by material distinctions. The DLF Indian Premier League will create a distinction for the best performing batsman, which will be cherished and valued by each player through this initiative. The purpose of this initiative is to be innovative, create another unique piece of history that sets the DLF Indian Premier League apart from the crowd, and to reward outstanding achievements by the players."<ref name="that"/> Kane Williamson was the only non - opener to win Orange Cap. {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" |+Winners |- !

== Purple Cap ==

The '''Purple Cap''' is presented to the leading wicket-taker in each season of the IPL.<ref name="purplecap"/><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/ipl-2015/warner-takes-orange-cap-bravo-wins-race-for-purple-cap/article1-1350947.aspx|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150525092953/http://www.hindustantimes.com/ipl-2015/warner-takes-orange-cap-bravo-wins-race-for-purple-cap/article1-1350947.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-date=25 May 2015|title=Warner takes Orange cap, Bravo wins race for Purple cap}}</ref> After the introduction of Orange Cap on 25 April 2008, the IPL announced the introduction of the Purple Cap on 13 May 2008. The bowler with most wickets in the tournament during the course of the season would wear the Purple Cap while fielding, with the overall leading wicket-taker at the conclusion of the tournament winning the actual Purple Cap award on the day of the season's final. In case of a tie, the bowler with superior economy rate would hold the Purple Cap.<ref name="purple" /> So far Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Dwayne Bravo, Harshal Patel and Kagiso Rabada have won the Purple Cap twice. Dwayne Bravo and Harshal Patel scalped 32 wickets in the 2013 Indian Premier League and 2021 Indian Premier League respectively, the most for any bowlers in a single edition of the tournament but Dwayne Bravo remains ahead of Harshal Patel because of better economy rate of the two as per the IPL rules.

The then IPL chairman and commissioner Lalit Modi said of the initiative, "We have seen over the course of the inaugural season of the League so far that bowlers have just as important a role to play in winning T20 matches as batsmen do."<ref name="purple">{{cite web|title=Purple Cap for bowlers|url=http://www.tribuneindia.com/2008/20080514/sports.htm#6|publisher=The Tribune, Chandigarh, India|access-date=14 May 2016}}</ref> {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" |+Winners |- !
