Mitchell Starc IPL profile: 65 wickets in 50 bowling innings at a strike-rate of 16.29, one of the fastest among left-arm quicks in league history. The Australian speedster has represented Delhi Capitals (2025), Kolkata Knight Riders (2024) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (2014 & 2015), and his 11 IPL seasons span four actual campaigns. Starc’s 2024 return with KKR produced a five-wicket haul—his solitary five-for in the tournament—and nine three-wicket bursts that underline his love for breakthroughs. Over 176.3 overs (1,059 balls) he conceded 1,526 runs at an economy of 8.65, numbers that reveal both wicket-taking venom and the price modern power-hitters pay when targeting him. With the bat, Starc is a lower-order cameo artist: 111 runs from 119 balls, 11 fours, and a highest score of 29 across 21 innings. While his primary currency remains wickets, those quick runs have often shifted momentum in tight chases. From 2015’s raw pace promise to 2025’s experienced spearhead, Mitchell Starc’s IPL journey is a story of speed, swing, and the enduring value of left-arm thunderbolts on Indian pitches.

Sandeep Sharma IPL 2025: Swing master headlines Rajasthan Royals attack with 146 wickets across 13 seasons Since his debut in 2013, Sandeep Sharma has quietly built one of the most consistent new-ball résumés in IPL history. Operating for Rajasthan Royals since 2023 (after earlier stints with Punjab Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad), the right-arm seamer has sent down 3,041 deliveries and walked away with 146 wickets—an impressive strike rate of 20.83 balls per wicket. His economy sits at a tight 8.03 runs per over, rare restraint in the slam-bang format. Eleven three-wicket hauls and a solitary five-for underline his ability to break open an innings, while his best figures of 5/25 remain a testament to his knack for late-swing devastation. Sandeep’s longevity—13 campaigns and counting—makes him one of only a handful of bowlers to appear in every IPL season since 2013, and the only one to spend five-plus seasons each with both Punjab Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad before anchoring the Royals attack.
