Tim Southee has quietly become one of the IPL’s most bankable death-over specialists, piling up 47 wickets from 54 bowling innings across ten seasons for six franchises. The New Zealand quick’s most recent spell with Kolkata Knight Riders—his home since 2021—has seen him own the tough overs, landing four three-wicket hauls while never once conceding a five-for. Operating at an 8.67 economy rate and striking every 25.66 balls, Southee’s 1,206 legal deliveries have cost batters 1,742 runs but have also delivered momentum-turning breakthroughs. Away from the ball, the lower-order slugger has pounced on loose deliveries when asked, racing to 120 runs off only 107 balls, including eight fours and four sixes, with a top-score of 36. Yet the real story remains his mastery with the ball: three maximums in an innings on his best day, and a career-best haul of three wickets in a match—achieved four times—showing that Southee’s value rises when the pressure peaks.

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.
