IPL Winner 2016: Sunrisers Hyderabad

The Sunrisers Hyderabad team managed to win the final against Royal Challengers Bangalore by just 8 runs. David Warner masterfully crafted the team journey through the season as a captain. But the season was more about the Virat Kohli - Ab de Villiers partnership in almost all the RCB matches. Virat scored 4 centuries and 7 half-centuries in 16 innings he played! There should be no doubt on who was the orange cap winner for the season.

IPL Winner 2015: Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians became the third team after CSK and KKR to win the title more than once. Again, the apt balancing of the Mumbai Indians helped them win the trophy. Simmons, Rohit Sharma, Ambati Rayadu and Kieron Pollard carried the batting unit. The bowling department was led by Slinga Malinga.

Robin Uthappa from KKR won the orange cap for scoring 660 runs in 16 innings.

IPL Winner 2013: Mumbai Indians

The hitman, Rohit Sharma led Mumbai Indians to their first glory at the IPL. MI did so by defeating Chennai Super Kings in the final of 2013 IPL.

IPL Winner 2012: Kolkata Knight Riders

Kolkata Knight Riders defeated the defending champions Chennai Super Kings in the final. With KKR batsman left with the daunting task of chasing 190 in the final, Bisla took the onus of chase on himself and replied with a swashbuckling inning of 89 from 48 balls. CSK’s run feast led by Suresh Raina’s 73 from 38 wasn’t enough to stop the Knights from snatching the title from them.

IPL Winner 2011: Chennai Super Kings

Channai Super Kings become the first team of the IPL to win back-to-back finals in history. The defending champions held the title against the batting titans of the tournament RCB.

IPL Winner 2010: Chennai Super Kings

MS Dhoni finally lifted the trophy after missing it in the inaugural edition. The likes of Suresh Raina, Mathew Hayden, Albie Morkel, Muralitharan and Dhoni himself were the strong contenders for the title right from the start of the tournament. Suresh Raina was absolutely brilliant with the bat throughout the tournament, serving as the backbone of the team’s batting lineup. It was his knock of 57 not out from 35 that lit up CSK’s road to glory in its final against Sachin Tendulkar-led Mumbai Indians.

IPL Winner 2008: Rajasthan Royals

Shane Warne led the Rajasthan Royals to win the first edition of the Indian Premier League. A thoroughly well-balanced team with experienced batsmen like Shane Watson and Graeme Smith, an explosive batsman like Yusuf Pathan in the middle order, and a deceptive bowler like Sohail Tanvir was the backbone of the Rajasthan Royals in the first edition. But in the final against the Chennai Super Kings, Yusuf Pathan played the match of his life with contributions in both the bowling and the batting departments.
