🏏 Hardus Viljoen - IPL Career Overview

South African speedster Hardus Viljoen lit up the Indian Premier League with raw pace and fearless aggression. Signed by Kings XI Punjab ahead of the 2016 season, Viljoen became an instant impact bowler, regularly breaching the 140 kph mark and unsettling top-order batsmen. His memorable IPL debut saw him claim a prized wicket in the opening over, announcing his arrival on the grand stage. Known for the ability to swing the new ball and deliver toe-crushers at the death, Viljoen provided captaincy flexibility, slotting in as a powerplay enforcer and a death-overs specialist. Energetic celebrations and never-say-die attitude made him a fan favourite.


Hardus Viljoen burst into the Indian Premier League with Kings XI Punjab in 2019 and, in a single season, showed why pace can still be the deadliest currency on Indian tracks. The South African quick played six bowling innings, sent down 138 balls and walked away with seven wickets at a brisk strike-rate of 19.7 balls per scalp. Those numbers tell a story of impact over quantity: Viljoen never needed more than two wickets in an innings to tilt the contest—his best figures were 2/29—and he did it while hurrying batters into false shots at nearly ten runs an over. With the bat Viljoen was more of a cameo act, facing seven balls in three brief stays and managing only three runs, but the tale of his 2019 IPL stint is written in red-ink on the bowling card. Every over he bowled carried threat; every wicket he took arrived in clusters that broke partnerships. Although his campaign lasted just one season, the snapshot of 138 balls yielding seven wickets at an economy of 9.65 shows a bowler willing to trade runs for breakthroughs—exactly the gamble T20 franchises dream of. Kings XI Punjab fans may recall Viljoen for one searing spell too many in that lone season, and fantasy managers still remember his 19.7 strike-rate as a gold-mine differential. In the fast-paced annals of IPL, Hardus Viljoen’s 2019 remains a concise master-class on how raw pace, deployed fearlessly, can leave a permanent mark in just 138 balls.
