In any form of cricket, one thing that a batsman doesn't like is getting out for a duck. It is also a fact in T20 cricket and IPL. There are some instances when a player gets nervous in the first few balls and often goes to the pavilion without scoring a run in such cases. That is one of the reasons why players get relief when they get their first run of the innings.
