Rasikh Salam IPL 2025: 10 wickets in 13 innings, best 3-29, two three-fors for Royal Challengers Bengaluru Fast-rising Jammu & Kashmir seamer Rasikh Salam has quietly become one of IPL 2025’s most reliable death-over operators. Across four seasons with four different franchises—Mumbai Indians (2019), Kolkata Knight Riders (2022), Delhi Capitals (2024) and now Royal Challengers Bengaluru—Salam has bowled 231 balls, conceded 409 runs and struck ten times, including two three-wicket hauls. His strike-rate of 23.1 balls per wicket underlines his habit of breaking partnerships, while an economy of 10.62 shows he is trusted to bowl the tough overs. With the bat, the 23-year-old has chipped in 40 runs from 40 balls, hitting five boundaries without clearing the rope; his highest in six innings is 10*. While primarily a bowler, those cameos have helped RCB stretch totals past 200. From uncapped rookie to key cog in Faf du Plessis’ plans, Rasikh Salam’s upward curve makes him one to watch in the IPL 2025 playoffs and beyond.

David Warner IPL career – 6,565 runs at 139 strike-rate across 15 seasons Australian opener David Warner has turned the IPL into his personal highlight reel, amassing 6,565 runs from 4,697 balls since his 2009 debut with Delhi. The left-hander has blasted 663 fours and 236 sixes, translating to a boundary every 4.9 balls. Warner has reached fifty 62 times and gone past three figures on four occasions, his highest an unbeaten 126. After early seasons with Delhi Capitals, Warner became the heartbeat of Sunrisers Hyderabad, captaining the side to the 2016 title with 848 runs that year alone. He returned to Delhi Capitals in 2022 and, still going strong in 2024, has now faced 184 innings for two franchises while maintaining the same explosive intent. A solitary over with the ball is the only deviation from his batting master-class, underlining why Warner is remembered as one of the most feared IPL openers ever.
