Age is normally distributed. There are some young players, probably talented enough to start playing early. We also observe some older
players, well into there 40's, still playing in the IPL

Mumbai has most wins followed by Chennai and than Kolkata. Now, let's see who's winning the toss more often

Again it's Mumbai who's winning the toss more often. Let's see what are the teams doing after winning the toss over the years

match.replace(to_replace='Bat', value = 'bat', inplace=True) #Replace 'Bat' with 'bat'

Teams used to bat first after winning the toss during initial years of IPL. But we see there's a clear change in this pattern, specially last couple
of years.

Right arm bat and Right arm medium are clearly more popular

Now, let's look at the countries.

Most players are from India followed by Australia and South Africa
