It has been decided to give five types of belts in the first season of ILT20 events.

Green Belt, White Belt, Black Belt, Red and Blue Belt. The player who has the most runs at the end of the league will be given a green belt. At the same time, the player who has the most wickets in his account will get the white belt. However, during the tournament, the green and white belts will move between different players. Just like IPL. Like in IPL, the contenders for Orange (most runs) and Purple Cap (most wickets) keep changing with every match. The highest run scorer in the IPL gets Orange and the highest wicket taker gets Purple Cap.
