Kane Williamson IPL journey: 2,128 runs, 18 half-centuries, 125 strike-rate. Across 76 innings for Sunrisers Hyderabad and now Gujarat Titans, the New Zealand maestro has turned timing into an art, striking 185 fours and 64 sixes while never once falling for a score beyond 89. Ten seasons, one unbroken commitment to placement over power.

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.
