Riley Meredith IPL 2023: 19 wickets in 18 innings, fastest Australian pacer in Mumbai Indians attack Australian speedster Riley Meredith finished IPL 2023 as one of Mumbai Indians’ most reliable death-over weapons, snaring 19 scalps across three seasons with the five-time champions. Operating at a strike-rate of 20.42 balls per wicket and touching speeds in excess of 140 kph, Meredith kept batsmen guessing on the traditionally batting-friendly Indian tracks. His standout spell came in 2022 when he rattled the opposition with twin-wicket bursts in back-to-back games, proving why MI invested in him for consecutive auctions. Across 388 deliveries for Mumbai and earlier for Punjab Kings, Meredith conceded 612 runs while maintaining a brisk economy of 9.46—numbers that underline his role of hunting breakthroughs rather than merely containing. Not yet a five-wicket haul name, the 27-year-old’s ability to deliver two-wicket cameos makes him a floating X-factor in the powerplay and the slog overs. With 2024 on the horizon, expect the Tasmanian quick to add more wickets to his IPL tally and tighten that economy as he eyes his first three-wicket haul in the tournament.

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.
