Graeme Smith IPL career from 2008 to 2011 was defined by fearless left-handed batting that produced 739 runs in 29 innings, striking at 110 runs per 100 balls. Opening the innings for Rajasthan Royals in 2008, 2009 and 2010 before finishing with Pune Warriors in 2011, the South African captain turned every 7.3 deliveries into either a boundary or a maximum, carving 94 fours and 9 sixes in total. Four half-centuries, topped by an unbeaten 91, showcased the same aggressive mindset that had already made him a global leader. With no bowling overs recorded, Smith’s sole focus was anchoring or exploding at the top, and his 739-run tally tells the story of a batsman who combined power with placement, guiding teams through the power-play and beyond.
