Shahbaz Nadeem IPL profile: left-arm orthodox spinner who quietly built a decade-long IPL story from 2011 to 2021. Across 11 seasons—eight with Delhi Capitals and three with Sunrisers Hyderabad—Nadeem sent down 1 415 balls, picking up 48 wickets at a strike rate of 29.48 and an economy of 7.56. His standout moment came in 2016 when he claimed 3 for 16 against Rising Pune Supergiant, the only three-wicket haul in his 70-inning IPL journey. Batting rarely, he managed 39 runs from 87 balls, but his value remained in strangling batters in the middle overs. With just one 3-wicket burst yet a steady record, Nadeem’s career is the tale of a frugal, reliable spinner who kept turning up for two franchises over 11 seasons.

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.
