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.

Tillakaratne Dilshan IPL career: 1 153 runs, 140 fours, 24 sixes in 50 innings, strike-rate 114. Explosive opener for Delhi Capitals (2008-10) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (2011-13), nine half-centuries, highest score 76. Useful part-time bowler with five wickets from 271 balls at 8.1 economy.
