OC McCoy IPL 2023: Rajasthan Royals’ speed merchant left an indelible mark in just eight overs of action, pocketing 11 wickets at a lightning strike-rate of 14.64 balls per scalp. The left-arm quick twice turned matches with a three-wicket burst and kept batters guessing at an economy of 9.32 despite bowling largely in the death overs. After two seasons with RR, McCoy’s tally of 161 deliveries has already produced 11 breakthroughs, proving his worth as a wicket-taking option rather than a mere containing bowler. With the bat, he showed glimpses of power in his solitary outing—smashing one towering six in an eight-run cameo at a 160 strike-rate—yet it is clearly his 11 wickets in 161 balls that headline the Caribbean pacer’s short but impactful IPL story so far.

Ajinkya Rahane IPL journey spans 17 seasons, 183 innings and a mountain of 5,032 runs that have come off 4,025 balls at a brisk strike-rate of 125. The Mumbai-born right-hander has punished bowlers for 514 fours and 123 sixes, crossing fifty 33 times and reaching three figures on two memorable occasions, the highest being an unbeaten 105. After stints with Mumbai Indians, Rajasthan Royals, Rising Pune Supergiant, Delhi Capitals and Chennai Super Kings, he is back with Kolkata Knight Riders for IPL 2025. While Rahane has rolled his arm over only once in the league, picking up a solitary wicket in a six-ball cameo that cost five runs, he remains celebrated as one of the league’s most technically sound and consistent top-order batsmen.
