Let’s have a look at all the award winners of the Indian Premier League 2022.
IPL 2022 Awards List
IPL 2022 Orange Cap
The highest run-scorer of the season takes the orange cap home and Rajasthan Royals’ opener Jos Buttler made a firm grip on it since the start of the season. Once, Hardik Pandya took it away from him, but then it was just a one-horse race.
KL Rahul again was very consistent in the tournament and finished at the 2nd position with 616 runs at an average of 51.33. Rahul’s opening partner Quinton de Kock also finished in the top-3 spots.
Jos Buttler won the Orange Cap of IPL 2022 with 863 runs in 17 innings at an average of 57.53 and a strike rate of 149.05 respectively. Gets a prize money of INR 10 lakh.
IPL 2022 Purple Cap
The highest wicket-taker of the tournament gets the purple cap, and the race was one of the closest ones ever in the IPL history. Leg-spinners Wanindu Hasaranga and Yuzvendra Chahal topped the wicket-taking charts and the battle between them went on till the very last day of the tournament.
The pace duo of Kagiso Rabada (23 wickets) and Umran Malik (22 wickets) also bowled really well to finish at the 3rd and 4th position, respectively.
In the end, Yuzvendra Chahal bagged the award with his 27 wickets in 17 matches at an average of 19.51, an economy rate of 7.75 and a strike rate of 15.1. Gets a prize money of INR 10 lakh.
So Rajasthan Royals have the Purple & the Orange Cap. RR had a really good campaign. If they had won tonight, it would have been a perfect tribute to the first Royal, Shane Warne. Kinda bummed. 💔
