Josh Hazlewood IPL 2025: 57 wickets in 39 innings, best 4 for, eight 3-wicket bursts, economy 8.28 Australian pace spearhead Josh Hazlewood has turned every IPL season since 2020 into a master-class of new-ball precision and death-over nerve. Across five campaigns—two with Chennai Super Kings (2020-21) and the last three with Royal Challengers Bengaluru—Hazlewood has sent down 867 balls and walked away with 57 wickets, a strike-rate of 15.21 that underlines his knack for breaking partnerships at will. Eight times he has finished an innings with three or more scalps, and his season-best 4-wicket haul stands as proof of his ability to run through line-ups on helpful or flat decks alike. Even while bowling mostly at the toughest overs—powerplay and the back-end—he has kept his economy at 8.28, forcing batters to take the risk against the rest. With the 2025 season confirming his spot as RCB’s go-to enforcer, Hazlewood’s tally of 1,196 runs conceded shows the price he extracts for every inch conceded.

David Warner IPL career – 6,565 runs at 139 strike-rate across 15 seasons Australian opener David Warner has turned the IPL into his personal highlight reel, amassing 6,565 runs from 4,697 balls since his 2009 debut with Delhi. The left-hander has blasted 663 fours and 236 sixes, translating to a boundary every 4.9 balls. Warner has reached fifty 62 times and gone past three figures on four occasions, his highest an unbeaten 126. After early seasons with Delhi Capitals, Warner became the heartbeat of Sunrisers Hyderabad, captaining the side to the 2016 title with 848 runs that year alone. He returned to Delhi Capitals in 2022 and, still going strong in 2024, has now faced 184 innings for two franchises while maintaining the same explosive intent. A solitary over with the ball is the only deviation from his batting master-class, underlining why Warner is remembered as one of the most feared IPL openers ever.
