The inaugural season of the IPL was held in 2008, and the tournament has been held annually in India[a] ever since.[1] Currently, ten teams compete for the championship.[3] Since the league's inception, eight teams have won the title, with the Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings both securing five titles each.

Indian batsman Rohit Sharma and wicket-keeper MS Dhoni are the most successful captains in the league, each winning five titles. Dhoni also holds the record for the most matches played. West Indies batsman Chris Gayle holds several individual batting records, including the highest individual score in a match (175*), the most sixes scored (357), the most sixes in a match (17), and the fastest century (off 30 balls). Indian bowler Yuzvendra Chahal holds the record for the most wickets taken (205).[4][5] West Indies bowler Alzarri Joseph holds the record for the best bowling figures with 6/12.
