Ben Stokes IPL profile 2023: England’s talisman has powered 935 runs in 43 innings at a strike-rate of 133, peppering 81 fours and 32 sixes while posting two centuries and two fifties. His career-best 107 came at a blistering tempo, underlining the match-winning impact that Chennai Super Kings paid for. Across six seasons—Rajasthan Royals (2018-21), Rising Pune Supergiant (2017) and now CSK—the left-hander has faced 698 balls and cleared ropes or found gaps almost every six deliveries. With the ball Stokes complements the carnage, nipping 28 wickets in 38 innings at an economy of 8.64 and a strike-rate of 24.61, including three three-wicket bursts. From clutch knocks to death-over strikes, Stokes remains the premier all-round force in IPL fantasy and betting circles.

Ashish Nehra IPL career: 106 wickets in 88 innings, 14 three-wicket bursts, best 4 for 10, economy 7.85, strike-rate 18. Overs nine seasons from 2008 to 2017, the left-arm quick turned powerplay destroyer for Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals, Pune Warriors, Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad. In 2015-16 he spearheaded CSK and SRH attacks, returning 24 wickets in 17 games. His 1908 balls cost only 2495 runs, a testament to discipline on Indian decks. With the bat Nehra was never the headline, yet 41 runs at 66 strike-rate and three fours plus one towering six show he could swing if needed. Highest score 22 off 14, 17 innings, no fifty but plenty of sting in the tail.
