Bipul Sharma’s seven-season IPL journey from 2010 to 2017 tells the tale of an adaptable cricketer who quietly tilted games Kings XI Punjab’s way before becoming a trusted utility piece for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Over 28 bowling innings he nipped out 17 wickets at a strike-rate of 25.06 balls per scalp, never once going for more than two wickets in an outing yet keeping the run-flow tight with an economy of 8.06. Those numbers reveal a bowler who specialised in breaking partnerships rather than running through sides. With the bat he proved a handy lower-order striker: 187 runs off 123 balls at a blazing strike-rate of 152, including 11 fours and 9 sixes. His unbeaten 35 remains the highest of his 17 innings, illustrating a knack for late-overs acceleration. Whether chipping in with the ball or clearing the ropes in the death overs, Bipul Sharma’s all-round cameos made him a low-profile but valuable asset across 35 IPL matches.

Jasprit Bumrah has been the heartbeat of Mumbai Indians’ attack for twelve straight IPL seasons, and the numbers tell a story few fast bowlers can match. Across 145 bowling innings he has rattled 183 wickets—translating to a scalp every 18.23 balls—and conceded only 7.25 runs an over despite bowling mostly at the death. His 23 three-wicket bursts and two five-fors underline a rare ability to turn games in a single spell, while his career-best 5 for is a reminder that even the most daring finishers think twice before taking him on. With 3,337 balls sent down and only 4,031 runs leaked, Bumrah’s economy is textbook for T20 mayhem, yet his strike rate remains elite. The 2025 season will mark his thirteenth campaign in MI blue, making him one of the longest-tenured one-franchise warriors in IPL history. While his batting remains a footnote—68 runs from 79 balls with five fours and a solitary six—every run he scores is greeted like a bonus track at a sold-out concert. From 2013 to 2025, Bumrah has grown from rookie yorker prodigy to global pace spearhead, all without swapping jerseys. For fantasy managers, opposition strategists, and die-hard MI fans alike, the message is clear: when Bumrah steams in, scoreboards freeze and scorecards fill up—one precision yorker at a time.
