Australian hard-hitting all-rounder Ashton Turner has completed two brief Indian Premier League campaigns, first with Rajasthan Royals in 2019 and most recently with Lucknow Super Giants in the 2024 season. Across six IPL innings Turner has amassed 24 runs off 28 balls, translating to a strike rate of 85. While the sample size is small, the right-hander has already showcased his six-hitting prowess, clearing the ropes twice in his 28 deliveries—an eye-catching 7.1% six-per-ball ratio that hints at the power game that has made him a T20 globetrotter. Turner’s highest IPL score stands at 16, achieved during his 2024 stint with LSG, and although he has yet to register a half-century or century in the tournament, the 31-year-old’s reputation as a proven finisher in leagues like the BBL and PSL keeps franchises interested. With the ball Turner has not been called upon in IPL action, recording zero wickets across zero bowling innings. Nevertheless, his off-spin remains a handy secondary option in shorter formats. Turner’s limited IPL exposure—spanning only two seasons five years apart—means his 24-run ledger is far from representative of his overall T20 record. Fantasy managers and fans alike continue to watch for the Western Australia captain’s next IPL opportunity, knowing that when given a consistent run, his boundary-clearing ability can quickly add match-winning runs to the scoreboard.

Chris Gayle IPL story: 13 seasons, 4 965 runs, 357 sixes and one unforgettable 175. The self-styled “Universe Boss” walked into IPL 2009 with Kolkata Knight Riders, but it was at Royal Challengers Bengaluru from 2011-2017 that he became a global T20 icon—belting 404 fours and 357 sixes overall at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 148. In 141 innings he cleared the rope once every 9.3 balls and produced 31 half-centuries plus six blistering hundreds, the most famous being his record 175* off 66 balls at the Chinnaswamy in 2013. After his Bengaluru fireworks, Gayle took his power game to Punjab Kings, turning up in orange from 2018 to 2021 and continuing to pepper boundaries with the same ruthless ease. While he rolled his arm over occasionally—18 wickets in 38 bowling innings—his narrative is written in soaring sixes and match-winning hundreds that re-defined T20 batting forever.
