Ajit Agarkar IPL career was built around his incisive fast-medium bowling that delivered 29 wickets from 782 balls across 42 innings between 2008 and 2013. The Mumbai stalwart spent his first three seasons with Kolkata Knight Riders before shifting to Delhi Capitals, the franchise that retained him from 2011 to 2013. His standout spell came in the 2010 edition when he claimed his only three-wicket haul, returning 3 for 26 against Rajasthan Royals at Eden Gardens. Operating at a strike rate of 26.97 and conceding 8.83 runs per over, Agarkar consistently hit the blockhole and mixed clever change-ups to keep power-hitters in check. Batting lower down, he still managed 179 quick runs off 154 balls, peppering 13 fours and 5 sixes with a strike rate of 116. His highest score of 39 came against Kings XI Punjab in 2010, an 18-ball blitz that showcased the late-order hitting that once made him India’s ODI Player of the Year.

Sunil Narine IPL profile: 14 seasons, 192 wickets, 1780 runs, one-man match engine Sunil Narine has become the definitive two-phase weapon in IPL history, piling up 192 wickets for Kolkata Knight Riders while striking at 22.63 balls per scalp and keeping the economy to a miserly 6.8. The off-spinner has tortured batters with 16 three-wicket bursts and one five-wicket demolition, landing telling blows in 187 bowling innings since 2012. Yet Narine’s story is not just about the ball. Promoted up the order, he has smashed 1780 runs at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 166, peppering 189 fours and 116 sixes. His lone IPL hundred—an unbeaten 109—arrived off just 56 balls, proving he can flip a chase in the space of an over. Seven fifties and a highest score of 109 add layers to a batting record that few specialist bowlers can rival. From season one in 2012 to the 2025 campaign, Narine has worn only one jersey: KKR purple and gold. That loyalty has delivered both numbers and narrative—4345 balls of mystery spin, 1069 balls of audacious hitting, and countless moments when Eden Gardens rose to its feet for the ultimate IPL double threat.
