The Indian Premier League has become the most popular Twenty20 league in all cricket matches, thanks to its exceptional tournament quality. Many young players’ professional careers have gotten their start in the league. Finding gaps in the field and driving the ball quickly toward the boundary are two of the most important skills for batsmen in the Indian Premier League. Because the IPL is one of the most thrilling leagues in the world, some athletes are so powerful that they can launch the ball over the backboard and into the spectators’ section. However, most batters rely on timing and the ability to find fours and speed up the innings.
Here is a list of all the IPL players who have hit the most fours:
| Rank | Batsmen | Four | Inning | Period |
| 1 | Shikhar Dhawan | 701 | 205 | 2008-2022 |
| 2 | Virat Kohli | 578 | 215 | 2008-2022 |
| 3 | David Warner | 577 | 162 | 2009-2022 |
