Orange Cap Trivia:
The batsman who holds the Orange Cap during the season is permitted to wear it while on the field during the games, as long as they retain the top spot in the run-scoring chart. In the event of a tie in runs between two or more batsmen, the player with a superior strike rate is awarded the Orange Cap. If an opposition batsman surpasses the tally of the current Orange Cap holder, the previous holder is allowed to wear the Cap until the end of that particular innings in which they are overtaken.
