🏏 Matt Short vs S K K Ahmed - 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.


IPL fast-bowler S K K Ahmed has carved a niche as one of the league’s most consistent wicket-takers across eight electrifying seasons. With 89 scalps from 71 bowling innings, the left-arm quick delivers a wicket almost every 17.48 balls—an enviable strike-rate that keeps middle-orders on edge. Operating at a brisk economy of 8.98, Ahmed has mastered the art of bowling tight spells while still picking up regular breakthroughs. Nine three-wicket hauls underline his ability to tilt games in a single over, even if the elusive five-for remains just out of reach. Since bursting onto the scene with Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2018—where he spent four solid seasons—Ahmed has worn the jerseys of Delhi Capitals and, most recently, Chennai Super Kings in 2025. The move to CSK has re-energised his campaign, adding fresh firepower to the yellow brigade’s pace battery. Batting rarely demanded his attention; across six brief innings he managed only two runs, but it is with the ball that he commands the spotlight. Capable of touching the 150 kmph mark and swinging it both ways, Ahmed’s fiery yorkers and clever slower balls have made him a death-over specialist. When the pressure peaks, expect SKK Ahmed to charge in and rattle the stumps—one wicket at a time.
