🏏 Karan Sharma vs Chris Gayle - IPL Careers Overview

Karan Sharma IPL Profile: 83 Wickets Across 12 Seasons Prove He’s a Bowling Asset Worth Watching Karan Sharma’s journey through the Indian Premier League has been defined by one golden arm rather than the bat. Across 87 bowling innings spread over 12 seasons, the 33-year-old off-spinner has picked up 83 wickets at a strike-rate of 19.10—meaning he bursts open an opposition partnership once every three overs. His economy of 8.38 is par for the modern T20 era, but the ability to break stands is what has kept franchises queuing up. Sharma has turned the ball for Chennai Super Kings, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Sunrisers Hyderabad and now Mumbai Indians, and every stop has produced a match-shaping spell: six three-wicket bursts and a best of 4/25 that showcase his knack for ripping through a middle order. While the bat has rarely been his calling card—352 runs in 40 innings at a highest of 39—Sharma can still clear the ropes when needed, depositing 17 sixes among 20 fours for a strike-rate of 119. Those cameo boundaries have often lifted his team past the par score after he has done the damage with the ball. From his debut in 2009 with RCB to his latest 2025 stint with MI, Sharma has remained a silent banker captains trust in crunch overs.


Chris Gayle IPL story: 13 seasons, 4 965 runs, 357 sixes and one unforgettable 175. The self-styled “Universe Boss” walked into IPL 2009 with Kolkata Knight Riders, but it was at Royal Challengers Bengaluru from 2011-2017 that he became a global T20 icon—belting 404 fours and 357 sixes overall at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 148. In 141 innings he cleared the rope once every 9.3 balls and produced 31 half-centuries plus six blistering hundreds, the most famous being his record 175* off 66 balls at the Chinnaswamy in 2013. After his Bengaluru fireworks, Gayle took his power game to Punjab Kings, turning up in orange from 2018 to 2021 and continuing to pepper boundaries with the same ruthless ease. While he rolled his arm over occasionally—18 wickets in 38 bowling innings—his narrative is written in soaring sixes and match-winning hundreds that re-defined T20 batting forever.
