Sri Lankan all-rounder Thisara Perera lit up six IPL seasons (2010-2016) with explosive left-handed hitting and canny seam bowling, making him one of the league’s most valuable finishers of the era. Over 30 innings with Rising Pune Supergiants, Chennai Super Kings, Mumbai Indians, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Punjab Kings and Kochi Tuskers Kerala, he slammed 422 runs at a strike-rate of 137, clearing the ropes 26 times and finding 23 fours, often turning matches in the death overs. His highest score of 40 came at better than a-run-a-ball, underlining his reputation as a six-hitting specialist. Perera’s value doubled with the ball. In 36 bowling innings he picked up 31 wickets, including three three-wicket hauls, and kept batsmen guessing at an economy of 8.73. A best return of 3 for and a strike-rate of 22.5 balls per wicket showcased his knack for breaking partnerships when captains needed it most. From powering Supergiants in 2016 to lifting Mumbai Indians in 2012, Thisara Perera’s all-round fireworks remain etched in IPL folklore.

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.
