Suresh Raina remains the most prolific Indian run-getter in IPL history, amassing 5,528 runs from just 200 innings at an explosive strike rate of 136. The left-hander, who last turned out for Chennai Super Kings in 2021, spent 13 seasons—12 of them with CSK—turning the yellow jersey into a synonym for reliability and flair. Raina’s bat sent the ball racing to the fence 506 times and cleared it 203 times, underlining his reputation as one of the league’s great entertainers. His lone IPL century, a scintillating 100*, sits alongside 39 half-centuries, proof that he could both anchor and accelerate at will. While he occasionally rolled his arm over, claiming 25 wickets in 69 bowling innings, the story of Raina is written primarily in runs and sixes.

Parthiv Patel’s 12-season IPL journey reads like a pocket-sized power saga: 2,848 runs from 136 innings, 365 fours and 49 sixes flying off 2,358 balls at a healthy strike rate of 120. Never a century-maker but always a momentum-builder, the left-handed wicket-keeper-batsman racked up 13 half-centuries, topping out at a blazing 81. Starting with Chennai Super Kings in the inaugural 2008 edition and closing with Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2019, he turned the opener’s slot into an art form, whether donning the yellow of CSK, the orange of Sunrisers, the blue of Mumbai Indians or the red of RCB. Quick between the wickets and even quicker with his cuts and pulls, Patel’s 0 wickets simply underline a career devoted to run-making, not run-stopping.
