South African storm Rilee Rossouw has lit up the IPL across four seasons, finishing the 2024 campaign with Punjab Kings after earlier stints with Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore. In 22 innings the left-handed dasher has stacked 473 runs off just 308 balls, translating to a blistering strike-rate of 153. His boundary-hitting ledger—45 fours and 25 sixes—shows he clears the ropes almost every other over, while twin half-centuries and a career-best 82 underline his ability to turn starts into match-shaping cameos. Although he hasn’t broken into three-figure marks yet, Rossouw’s fearless approach makes him a designated finisher and a sought-after asset for any T20 side chasing late-over fireworks.

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.
