South African left-arm seamer Wayne Parnell has quietly built a reputation as one of the IPL’s most consistent death-over operators, and his 2023 return with Royal Challengers Bengaluru underlined why franchises keep calling him back. Across five seasons from 2011 to 2023, Parnell has sent down 723 balls, struck 35 times and conceded only 937 runs—numbers that translate to a tight economy of 7.78 and a strike-rate of 20.66. While his four three-wicket hauls show the ability to break partnerships, the absence of a five-for highlights a career of disciplined containment rather than headline-grabbing bursts. With the bat he is a lower-order cameo merchant: 65 runs in 80 balls, four boundaries and a solitary six, but his highest score of 16 shows his brief stay at the crease is usually spent rotating the strike or finding the fence once before departing. After stints with Pune Warriors and Delhi Capitals, the 2023 RCB chapter saw the 33-year-old prove again that experience and left-arm angle make him an asset on Indian pitches.

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.
