Kumar Kartikeya Singh has quietly turned into one of IPL 2025’s most economical impact spinners. Across 16 bowling innings the left-arm orthodox bowler has snapped 12 wickets—never going wicket-less in a spell—while conceding only 407 runs off 282 balls. That translates to a razor-sharp strike-rate of 23.50 balls per scalp and an economy of 8.66, rare figures for a middle-overs operator on high-scoring Indian tracks. His career-best 2 for 18 arrived in Jaipur while donning Rajasthan Royals colours, the franchise that secured his services after two productive seasons with Mumbai Indians. Batting remains a cameo act: 12 runs from 17 balls, one boundary, highest score 6. Yet every time skipper Sanju Samson throws him the ball, Kartikeya delivers control and breakthroughs, making him an underrated asset in RR’s spin armoury for the 2025 IPL season.

Yashasvi Bhupendra Jaiswal IPL Story: 2,166 runs, 258 fours, 92 sixes in six seasons with Rajasthan Royals From his 2020 debut to the ongoing 2025 season, Yashasvi Jaiswal has become the beating heart of Rajasthan Royals’ top order. In 66 innings the left-hander has piled up 2,166 runs off just 1,417 balls, translating to a blistering strike rate of 152. The numbers explode further when you notice the 258 fours and 92 sixes, proof of his fearless boundary-hunting style. His fifteen half-centuries and two scintillating hundreds, including a career-best 124, underline match-winning pedigree rather than cameo promise. Having worn the Royals cap every single season since 2020, Jaiswal offers rare continuity in the ever-changing IPL carousel. Each year the franchise has banked on his ability to turn powerplay overs into boundary carnivals, and the opener has delivered with relentless consistency. With no bowling aspirations—his solitary over went for six runs—his entire focus remains on dismantling attacks, making him a pure batting asset in fantasy and real-world XIs alike. Heading into the 2025 playoffs push, expect Yashasvi Jaiswal to keep teeing off at 150-plus strike rates, peppering the arc between long-on and deep point with those 92 sixes and counting.
