Sohail Tanvir’s lone IPL season in 2008 remains one of the most explosive cameo campaigns by any overseas seamer. Turning out for Rajasthan Royals, the left-arm quick sent down 247 balls and stormed to 22 wickets—an eye-catching strike rate of 11.23 balls per scalp. Four times he ripped through three or more batsmen in an innings, and his 6 for 14 against Chennai stands as one of only a handful of five-fors in tournament history. Operating at a frugal 6.46 runs an over, Tanvir choked rival batting units while the Royals surged to the inaugural title. With the bat he was no mere tail-ender. Walking in five times, he muscled 36 runs off 29 balls—three fours and a six—striking at 124 and ensuring every short cameo counted. From ball one to the last, the Pakistan pacer’s 2008 IPL story is a master-class in white-ball impact: 22 wickets, a six-wicket haul, and all-round fireworks that still pop up in highlight reels today.

Dwayne Bravo IPL journey: 183 wickets in 158 innings, 17.05 balls per scalp, 8.38 economy—numbers that make him one of the most feared death-overs specialists in tournament history. The Trinidadian all-rounder turned up for Chennai Super Kings in 9 of his 14 seasons, lifting the trophy four times in yellow. His 4-14 best figures and 16 three-wicket bursts underline relentless pressure, while 3,120 balls of control across 158 bowling innings tell the story of a master tactician. With the bat he still chipped in 1,560 runs at a 129 strike-rate, including 120 fours and 66 sixes, often flipping games in the final overs. From 2008 to 2022, Bravo’s name became synonymous with last-over magic and celebratory dance moves, making the “Champion” bowler an IPL legend.
