Cricket hasn’t been the same ever since the Indian Premier League (IPL) announced its arrival in 2008. The bid daddy of T20 cricket, IPL has revolutionized the game to a large extent. With the coming of T20 cricket, the game has seen a transition from five-day to three-hour entertainment. The shortest format of the game attracts a large audience and the Indian Premier League is a testimony to that. 

People love to watch the ball sailing out of the ground. Power-hitting skills have become the criteria to rope in cricketers for the shortest format, while the ones with the most elegant cover drives have taken a backseat. The franchises in IPL actively look for power-hitters who could score the boundary with unerring easy.
