🏏 Matt Short vs K L Rahul - IPL Careers Overview

Matt Short IPL 2023 Review: Punjab Kings’ Power-Packed Top-Order Asset Australian opener Matt Short burst onto the IPL stage in 2023 with Punjab Kings, turning just 92 balls into 117 runs at a fiery strike rate of 127. Across six innings the right-hander peppered boundaries with 15 fours and four sixes, never letting the run-rate drop below a run-a-ball. His season-best 36 showcased the fearless approach that has made him a sought-after T20 specialist, and his 127 SR ranks among the highest for any debutant facing 90-plus deliveries last year. While primarily deployed as a pinch-hitting batsman, Short also rolled his arm over in three matches, conceding only 25 runs from four tight overs (economy 6.25) and keeping opposition batters guessing with subtle changes of pace. Although he is yet to claim his first IPL wicket, the control he offers gives Punjab Kings an extra bowling option on sluggish Indian tracks. With one season, one franchise and a growing reputation for quick runs, Matt Short has already stamped his identity as a 360-degree match-winner in the making. Expect bigger scores and more fireworks from the Punjab Kings opener when IPL 2024 rolls around.


K L Rahul IPL career stats tell a story of sustained class and explosive finishing.

Forty half-centuries and five scintillating hundreds, topped by a 132* masterpiece, underline his big-match appetite. The boundary count alone is staggering: 452 fours threaded through the off-side ring and 208 sixes launched into the stands, proof that timing and power coexist in his blade. Having turned out for six different franchises, Rahul’s adaptability is as remarkable as his consistency, making him one of the most bankable top-order batsmen in IPL history.
