M Prasidh Krishna has built a reputation as one of the most consistent Indian pace spearheads in IPL history, and the numbers back the story. Across six seasons from 2018 to 2025, the 6' 8" speedster has sent down 1,499 balls and returned with 74 wickets for three franchises—Kolkata Knight Riders, Rajasthan Royals and now Gujarat Titans. His strike-rate of 20.26 balls per wicket is among the best for any Indian quick who has bowled 1,000-plus deliveries in the league, while an economy of 8.77 keeps batters honest even on the flattest decks. The Karnataka bowler’s peak burst came in 2022 when he rattled oppositions on 14 occasions, adding four-wicket hauls to his tally and finishing with seven three-wicket bursts overall. Despite missing the 2023 season, he roared back in 2025 with Gujarat Titans, already chipping in with vital middle-over strikes. Batting has rarely been his calling card—only 9 runs off 24 balls in seven brief stays, the highest being 4—but with the white rock in hand, Prasidh’s height, hit-the-deck aggression and late outswing make him a captain’s go-to enforcer.

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.
