MS Dhoni’s CSK became lifted the first of their four IPL titles against Sachin Tendulkar’s MI in a fiercely-contested final. Tendulkar, then 37 won the Orange Cap for his tally of 618 runs, the then-highest tally among the first three editions whereas Pragyan Ojha took home the Purple with 21 wickets. It was also the year that marked the arrival of Kieron Pollard, who left quite the imprint scoring 273 runs and picking 15 wickets.
