🏏 Zaheer Khan vs Sunil Narine - IPL Careers Overview

Zaheer Khan IPL story: 102 wickets, 7.59 economy, 4-for best, 9 three-wicket bursts across 10 seasons Left-arm legend Zaheer Khan ruled IPL bowling charts for a decade, finishing with 102 scalps in 99 innings for Delhi Capitals, Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore. The master seamer sent down 2,200 balls, conceding 2,782 runs at a sharp economy of 7.59 and a strike-rate of 21.57 balls per wicket. His standout spell was a four-for, backed by nine three-wicket hauls that repeatedly swung matches. From the inaugural season in 2008 to his 2017 swansong with Delhi, Zaheer was the go-to death-over specialist, using swing and clever change-ups to choke rival batting line-ups.


Sunil Narine IPL profile: 14 seasons, 192 wickets, 1780 runs, one-man match engine Sunil Narine has become the definitive two-phase weapon in IPL history, piling up 192 wickets for Kolkata Knight Riders while striking at 22.63 balls per scalp and keeping the economy to a miserly 6.8. The off-spinner has tortured batters with 16 three-wicket bursts and one five-wicket demolition, landing telling blows in 187 bowling innings since 2012. Yet Narine’s story is not just about the ball. Promoted up the order, he has smashed 1780 runs at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 166, peppering 189 fours and 116 sixes. His lone IPL hundred—an unbeaten 109—arrived off just 56 balls, proving he can flip a chase in the space of an over. Seven fifties and a highest score of 109 add layers to a batting record that few specialist bowlers can rival. From season one in 2012 to the 2025 campaign, Narine has worn only one jersey: KKR purple and gold. That loyalty has delivered both numbers and narrative—4345 balls of mystery spin, 1069 balls of audacious hitting, and countless moments when Eden Gardens rose to its feet for the ultimate IPL double threat.
