Prithvi Shaw has been Delhi Capitals’ pocket-rocket opener since 2018, lighting up seven IPL seasons with a fearless brand of batting built on one mantra—see the ball, hit the ball. Across 79 innings the right-hander has piled up 1,892 runs at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 147, turning every delivery into potential fireworks. Those numbers translate to 238 fours and 61 sixes that have dented advertising hoardings and opposition morale alike. While the three-figure mark has narrowly eluded him—his highest remains an agonising 99—Shaw has still crossed fifty on 14 occasions, proving he can both explode and anchor when the situation demands. Every season the 24-year-old has donned the DC blue, making the Ferozeshah Kotla his personal playground. With 238 boundaries already to his name, Shaw is chasing the rare 250-fours club, and at his current pace the landmark could arrive as early as IPL 2025.

Kyle Jamieson IPL profile: towering fast bowler who has already pocketed 14 wickets in just 13 innings, including two three-wicket hauls. The 6'8" New Zealander joined Punjab Kings in IPL 2025 after a 2021 stint with Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and his impact has been immediate. Operating at a brisk economy of 9.67, Jamieson’s 18.43 balls-per-wicket strike-rate underlines his wicket-taking knack, while his season-best 3 for keeps opposition top-orders on alert. With the bat he adds handy lower-order muscle, striking at 108 and clearing the rope three times in 60 balls faced. Across two seasons Jamieson has delivered 258 balls of controlled pace, conceded 416 runs and still finished as one of the most economical big quicks on show. Expect more breakthroughs and late-order fireworks from the Punjab Kings spearhead as the 2025 campaign unfolds.
