Golden Ducks in IPL and Fan Reactions

Today, I am revealing some shocking reactions by fans when a player got a golden duck in IPL. I am a huge fan of cricket and Indian Premier League as well. As a cricket fan, I obviously want my favorite player to perform the best and always score the highest runs or take the most wickets. But, as you know, it is not always possible.

Do you remember Shubman Gill’s golden duck against South Africa? The match was played in December 2025 against the punters when India was chasing a score of 214. Fans even shout loudly, “Step Back, Prince!”

Unexpected Fans’ Reaction When Players Get Out for A Golden Duck Will Blow Your Mind

1. Glenn Maxwell golden duck in IPL made fans stunned! A Punjab Kings female fan almost burst in anger and showed serious aggression when Glenn Maxwell made history in the 18th season of the Indian Premier League with the 19th Duck in the tournament.

2. Ritika Sajdeh, a die-hard fan of Mumbai Indians, has demonstrated the most shocking reaction along with Natasa Stankovic when her husband, Rohit sharma got an IPL golden duck against the Punjab Kings in the 2023 season. Her reaction went viral like fire in the forest, as she could not believe what happened.

3. The little Gujarat Titan fan went viral when Shubman Gill, the GT skipper, got a golden duck in IPL while playing against Chennai Super Kings in the 2022 season. This little girl got all attention and bites, even more than the whole GT team

4. Sanju Samson, the star performer of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2026 and captain of the Rajasthan Royals, has an unwanted golden duck record in Indian Premier League, but the weirdest and emotional fan reaction came when he recorded his first-ever golden duck against Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

5. Kavya Maran, famously known as “IPL wala crush,” demonstrates a very weird and disappointing reaction when Manish Pandey scores his 13th duck against Chennai Super Kings. Despite being dubbed the expression queen, fans trolled Kavya Maran for her reactions in the match.

6. Dinesh Kartik is the record holder of the golden duck in IPL as he got out at zero 18 times equating with Rohit Sharma. Royal Challengers Bangalore has the most devoted fan base, but this unexpected fan reaction went viral when KD Karthik scored a golden duck against Gujarat Titans in 2023.

7. IPL Godfather, or Captain Cool’s zero run dismissal creates explosive buzz among fans when MS Dhoni gets clean-bowled by Harshal Patel for a golden duck in IPL in 2024. Fans who were waiting impatiently for Thala to play got disappointed by MS Dhoni golden duck.

8. RCB fans got shocked and stunned by Virat Kohli’s golden duck in Indian Premier League. But what makes the fans more surprised is that both ducks came in the same season. Kohli got LBW by Trent Boult who took his 100th IPL wicket while the fans delivered a very shocking “Silence” reaction that spread on the internet.

9. Hardik Pandya, often tagged as the most egotistic cricketer, scored a duck for Mumbai Indians in a match against Lucknow Super Giants in 2024. The disappointed fans trolled him badly by referring to him as an “overrated player” while some fans joked that Pandya needs a bag to keep the golden ducks.
