Rajvardhan Hangargekar burst onto the IPL stage in 2023 wearing Chennai Super Kings yellow, and in just two bowling innings the 20-year-old Maharashtra quick showed why MS Dhoni’s side invested in him. Across 36 balls he rattled out three scalps, including a three-wicket burst that announced his arrival. Operating at a strike rate of 12.00 – one wicket every two overs – Hangargekar kept batters guessing with speeds in the high 140s and a clever slower ball. Though he leaked ten runs an over, the raw numbers tell a story of impact: 60 runs conceded for three priceless breakthroughs, including a match-turning 3-for that underlined his knack for striking in clusters. With one three-wicket haul already in his debut season, the right-arm pacer has given CSK a home-grown option who can swing the new ball and nail yorkers at the death. Expect Rajvardhan Hangargekar to build on these eye-catching 2023 figures when the IPL caravan rolls back in 2024.

Shreyas Iyer IPL batting story: 3,731 runs, 314 fours, 152 sixes in 131 innings – a strike-rate of 133 that turns every ball into a boundary threat. Ten seasons of consistency, 27 fifties, and a career-best 97 prove he is one of the league’s premier top-order anchors. From captaining Delhi Capitals through their 2018-21 rise to lifting the 2024 Kolkata Knight Riders trophy and now leading Punjab Kings in 2025, Iyer’s bat has done the talking. No wickets, no worries: his 2,798-ball dominance is crafted for run-glut, not dot-ball pressure. Watch for the 314 fours that pierce gaps and the 152 sixes that clear them—Shreyas Iyer remains IPL’s middle-over maestro and powerplay finisher rolled into one.
