B Sai Sudharsan has built a compelling IPL batting résumé in just four seasons with Gujarat Titans, stacking up 1,793 runs off 1,229 balls at a brisk strike-rate of 145. The 23-year-old left-hander has crossed fifty twelve times and converted two of those into scintillating hundreds, including a personal-best 108 that underlined his ability to bat deep. In 40 innings he has threaded 183 fours and cleared the ropes 52 times, showing a blend of timing and power that keeps the scoreboard in perpetual motion. Having worn the GT jersey every season from 2022 to 2025, Sudharsan has become a fixture at the top of the order, offering both stability and acceleration. With no bowling responsibilities—zero wickets in zero bowling innings—his entire focus remains on crafting match-defining innings, and the numbers confirm he is doing exactly that.

Tilak Varma has quietly grown into one of IPL’s most explosive young batters, stacking 1,499 runs in just four seasons with Mumbai Indians. Opening or floating in the middle order, the left-hander has faced 1,038 balls and smashed them at a scorching strike-rate of 144. Translation: every seven balls fetch at least one boundary, be it one of his 113 fours or 74 sixes. His fifty-plus scores already read eight, with a best of 84 not out, showing he can anchor or accelerate at will. More importantly, all the damage has come in only 51 innings; that is nearly 30 runs per knock and a boundary every other over. The numbers underline why MI have kept the Hyderabad prodigy in their core since 2022. While he has rolled his arm over occasionally—22 balls, 28 runs, no wickets—the story is overwhelmingly about the willow. In an era where 140-plus strike-rates define match-winners, Varma’s 144 slots him among the league’s elite finishers. Expect the tally of 1499 to race past 2,000 as he enters his prime seasons at the Wankhede cauldron.
