Jaydev Unadkat IPL Bowling Story: 110 wickets across 111 innings, 8 three-fors, 2 five-wicket hauls, best figures 5 for, strike-rate 20.67, economy 8.88. From 2010 debut with Kolkata Knight Riders to 2025 stint with Sunrisers Hyderabad, the left-arm seamer has featured in every IPL edition, representing nine franchises. His 2,274 balls have cost 3,364 runs, showing relentless hustle in the death overs. Eight times he has dented oppositions with three-plus scalps, twice blowing them away with five-fers. Unadkat’s 20.67 strike-rate underlines wicket-taking intent every 3.4 overs, while 8.88 economy balances attack with control. Batting-wise, 197 runs at 118 strike-rate, 16 fours, 7 sixes, highest 26, prove handy lower-order cameos. Sixteen seasons, same hunger: IPL’s marathon man continues to deliver breakthroughs for Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2025.

Faf du Plessis has become one of the most bankable IPL openers across 13 seasons and four franchises, culminating in his 2025 stint with Delhi Capitals. The South African has stacked up 4,773 runs at a strike rate of 135, carving 439 boundaries and clearing the rope 174 times—numbers that paint the picture of a batsman who keeps the scoreboard in perpetual motion. With 39 half-centuries from 147 innings, he has built consistency into aggression, while his unbeaten 96 remains the tantalising high-water mark just short of a maiden IPL ton. From Chennai Super Kings’ yellow to Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s red and now Delhi Capitals’ blue, du Plessis has turned every jersey into a run-making statement, proving that adaptability and class travel well in T20 cricket.
