Currently, three openers are in the top three positions for the running of the Orange Cap. Ajinkya Rahane has been a revelation and with top scores of a century and a 98 is the current holder of the Orange Cap. He is closely followed by Carribean Master Blaster who has now become the highest six hitter in IPL. Faf Du Plessis has been a revelation at the top of the order for Chennai Super Kings with his consistency. Who do you think will be winner of the Orange Cap this year? Cheers! Ram

It will be tough to predict who will be the winner of the Orange Cap this year as lots of matches to come and this IPL is not even reached the half way. Rahane is playing superbly and he proved that he really deserves a place. in Indian team.As you said Rahane, Gayle, Faf Du Plessis are in the top run for orange cap. But as there are lot more matches to come, there is a possibility that some other player can reach the top place.

What is more pleasing is except for Gayle, the other two have got their runs through beautiful cricketing shots. Rahane specially has been very very good on the eye!! Cheers! Ram

I guess Faf Du Plessis deserves it, seeing his consistency, might do it! However, being not so consistent, Gayle still covers his runs with an innings or two! Rahane also has shown great consistency!

Yes, he has now three consecutive 50s and in the other two innings has had a 30 plus scores as well. So yes he has been the most consistent so far. Owais Shah has been the other consistent player. Cheers! Ram

Rahane or Chris Gayle will take the orange cap this year, I think Rahane will probably take it ...

Rahane is still number one currently, though Faf has closed down some of the gap today. Owais Shah has thrown himself into the mix as well. Cheers! Ram
