Cricket News Desk. The Indian Premier League is the most popular T20 league in the world. It started in 2008 with Absolute Entertainment. Star players from all over the world participate in this league. In the last few years, IPL has touched new heights. From being the Premier League to being the most loved and richest league in the world, IPL has achieved a lot. The new season of IPL is about to start.

13 editions of IPL have been completed and many incredible records have been made during this period. Some records were made which will put the franchise to shame. Today we are going to tell you about a record which is one of the most embarrassing and strange records in IPL history.

1) Team losing the most matches – This shameful record is in the name of Delhi Daredevils, who have lost 99 matches. The team failed to reach the playoffs 7 times. At one time they had an army of great players like Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, AB de Villiers and many other great players, but luck did not favor the team.

2) Lowest team score – This is an embarrassing record for Royal Challengers Bangalore. On 23 April 2017, the entire RCB team was out for just 49 runs against Kolkata Knight Riders. However, RCB also holds the record for the highest score in IPL.

3) Highest run scorer – In 2018, Sunrisers Hyderabad fast bowler Basil Thampi scored 70 runs in 4 overs against RCB at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. They gave 19, 14, 18, 19 runs respectively.

4) Most runs in an over – You will not believe that the most runs in an over in IPL is 37. Universe Boss Chris Gayle scored 37 runs (6, 6+ balls, 4,4,6,6,4) off Prashanth Parameswaram against Kochi Tuskers Kerala in 2011.

5) Bowler who has bowled most wides in IPL history – Mumbai Indians and IPL superstar Lasith Malinga holds this unwanted record. Malinga has bowled 129 wide balls in the history of IPL. He has also taken the highest number of 154 wickets in IPL history.
6) Record of being out on zero most number of times – This great record is in the name of experienced all-rounder Harbhajan Singh. Harbhajan Singh has been out 13 times in the history of IPL. Bhajji has also scored more than 800 runs and has also made a unique record in his name.

7) Dropping most catches in a match – Mumbai Indians' star all-rounder and one of the best fielders in the world, Kieron Pollard has this shameful record. Pollard took three catches on three consecutive balls while fielding Mitchell Johnson at point.

8) Duck's hat-trick – Gautam Gambhir, who made Kolkata Knight Riders the IPL champion twice, also has the shameful record of being out three times in a row. In 2014, this left-handed batsman looked completely out of his rhythm and was out without opening the account.

9) Lowest score in powerplay – This strange record is in the name of Rajasthan Royals. In 2008, against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Rajasthan Royals scored just 14 runs in the first 6 overs and lost two wickets.
