The 16th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will start on March 31, with defending champion Gujarat Titans taking on four-time title holder Chennai Super Kings in the opening game in Ahmedabad.
The batter with the most runs in a season wins the Orange Cap.
Rajasthan Royals opener Jos Buttler amassed 863 runs to win the Orange Cap in 2022. The English batter slammed four centuries and as many fifties to guide his team to its first final in 14 years.
Here is the season-wise list of Orange Cap winners in IPL history ahead of the 2023 season.
