Rajat Bhatia IPL profile: 10 seasons, 71 wickets, 4 three-wicket hauls, best 4/15, economy 7.41, strike rate 23.04. From Delhi Capitals 2008 to Rising Pune Supergiant 2017, the medium-pacer played 91 bowling innings, conceded only 2020 runs off 1636 balls and kept the lid on scoring. With the bat he chipped in 342 runs at 120 strike rate, clobbering 24 fours and 13 sixes, proving why he was the go-to all-round option for KKR, RR and RPS.

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.
