Indian Premier League (IPL) is the most successful T20 franchise leagues in the world and many cricketers and experts have already admitted this. Many top international cricketers now want to experience this cash-rich league.
Like every limited-overs cricket, death overs are obviously a very important matter in T20 cricket too. In T20 cricket, the death overs run from 17th to 20th overs of each innings (in the full games). In the 12 years of IPL, some batsmen have dominated in the death overs, majorly due to their six-hitting skills.
