Sanath Jayasuriya lit up three IPL seasons with Mumbai Indians, hammering 768 runs at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 144. Over 532 balls he smashed 84 fours and 39 towering sixes, turning every 13th legal delivery into a boundary. His 30 innings featured four half-centuries and one unforgettable century—an unbeaten 114 that stood as his highest score. While primarily a batting cyclone, Jayasuriya also rolled his left-arm spin for 21 innings, claiming 13 wickets at a strike rate of 22.6 and once rattling the opposition with a three-wicket burst. From 2008 to 2010, the Sri Lankan legend was Mumbai’s ultimate game-breaker.

Ajinkya Rahane IPL journey spans 17 seasons, 183 innings and a mountain of 5,032 runs that have come off 4,025 balls at a brisk strike-rate of 125. The Mumbai-born right-hander has punished bowlers for 514 fours and 123 sixes, crossing fifty 33 times and reaching three figures on two memorable occasions, the highest being an unbeaten 105. After stints with Mumbai Indians, Rajasthan Royals, Rising Pune Supergiant, Delhi Capitals and Chennai Super Kings, he is back with Kolkata Knight Riders for IPL 2025. While Rahane has rolled his arm over only once in the league, picking up a solitary wicket in a six-ball cameo that cost five runs, he remains celebrated as one of the league’s most technically sound and consistent top-order batsmen.
