Amit Mishra IPL bowling record: 174 wickets in 162 innings over 16 seasons, 19.37 strike rate, 7.38 economy, 16 three-wicket hauls and one five-for – the veteran leg-spinner who spun Delhi, Hyderabad and now Lucknow to victories.

Albie Morkel, South Africa’s original IPL all-rounder, packed nine blockbuster seasons (2008-2016) into a single, explosive package. With Chennai Super Kings for seven of those years, he became MS Dhoni’s go-to finisher and death-over enforcer, later turning out for RCB, Delhi and finally Rising Pune Supergiants. Batting at a scorching strike-rate of 141, Morkel hammered 974 runs off just 686 balls, clearing the ropes 55 times and finding the gaps for 61 fours. Three half-centuries—his best a 73—underline his ability to change games in a blink. Switch to the ball and the story only gets better. Across 87 bowling innings he snapped 85 wickets, his 4/29 remaining the standout spell. Five three-wicket hauls kept rival batting orders guessing while an economy of 8.21 in the slog overs proved miserly for the T20 era. A wicket every 20.27 balls, Morkel’s hit-the-deck pace and cutters made him Dhoni’s insurance policy at the death. From roaring Chepauk nights to Pune’s new dawn, Albie Morkel’s 974-run blaze and 85-wicket burst remain a benchmark for IPL all-round brilliance.
