IPL has introduced Purple Cap for bowlers with more wickets. The batsmen already have Orange Cap. The batsman with more runs given the Orange cap.

As of now, it is rotating between Rohit Sharma off Deccan Chargers, Gautam Gambhir off Delhi Daredevils, Virendra Sehwag off Delhi Daredevils.

Since bowlers were left with no appreciation for their efforts, the IPL Organizing Committee has decided to introduce the Purple Cap for a bowler with most cumulative wickets to his name on each day of the season, and will be worn by that bowler in the field.

If the wickets are equal, then their economy rate will be considered.

At the end of the season, the bowler with most wickets will be wearing the cap and he will win the honor of being called the "Winner of Purple Cap 2008"
