🏏 D G Nalkande vs Ajinkya Rahane - IPL Careers Overview

Fast-bowling livewire D G Nalkande has quietly become one of Gujarat Titans’ most reliable impact options, piling up six wickets in only six bowling innings across three IPL seasons (2022-24). Operating at a sharp strike-rate of 14 balls per wicket, the Vidarbha seamer has shown he can break partnerships in the middle overs while conceding just 10.57 runs an over. His standout spell of 2 for 22 against Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2024 underlined his knack for producing breakthroughs when the match hangs in the balance. Though primarily a bowler, Nalkande’s fearless lower-order cameo of 12* off 12 balls—featuring a towering six—proved he can swing the long handle if needed. With Gujarat Titans backing him for a third straight year, the 26-year-old is fast emerging as the silent finisher who can tilt games with ball and occasionally surprise with the bat.


Ajinkya Rahane IPL journey spans 17 seasons, 183 innings and a mountain of 5,032 runs that have come off 4,025 balls at a brisk strike-rate of 125. The Mumbai-born right-hander has punished bowlers for 514 fours and 123 sixes, crossing fifty 33 times and reaching three figures on two memorable occasions, the highest being an unbeaten 105. After stints with Mumbai Indians, Rajasthan Royals, Rising Pune Supergiant, Delhi Capitals and Chennai Super Kings, he is back with Kolkata Knight Riders for IPL 2025. While Rahane has rolled his arm over only once in the league, picking up a solitary wicket in a six-ball cameo that cost five runs, he remains celebrated as one of the league’s most technically sound and consistent top-order batsmen.
