A rain-affected fixture between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Delhi Capitals (DC) in Hyderabad on Monday left the IPL 2025 Orange Cap and Purple Cap standings unchanged.
Orange Cap Standings
Virat Kohli of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) retains his position at the top, boasting 505 runs from 11 innings. On his heels is Gujarat Titans’ (GT) B Sai Sudharsan, who trails by just one run despite having played one fewer match. Suryakumar Yadav from Mumbai Indians (MI) ranks third with 475 runs.
Rajasthan Royals’ (RR) opener Yashasvi Jaiswal isn’t far behind with 473 runs from 12 innings. Completing the top five are GT’s Jos Buttler and Shubman Gill, with 470 and 465 runs, respectively.
Purple Cap Standings
Prasidh Krishna from GT is leading the Purple Cap race with 19 wickets in 10 games. RCB’s Josh Hazlewood closely follows, having taken 18 wickets from an equal number of outings.
After a strong performance against Lucknow Super Giants in Dharamsala, Arshdeep Singh occupies the third spot. He’s tied on 16 wickets with Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK) Noor Ahmad and MI’s Trent Boult, but Arshdeep stays ahead thanks to a better economy rate.
Former cricketer Martin remarked, “Improved performances by SRH arrived slightly too late this season.” With Varun Aaron and Katey Martin discussing the contrasting fortunes of teams this year, it’s clear the IPL remains unpredictable.
With league stages progressing, cricket enthusiasts can delve into various other statistics, such as batting strike rates, best bowling economy, and standout individual performances, enriching the analysis of IPL 2025.
