A duck is a batter’s worst start. The batter walks back to the pavilion without scoring a single run. In the IPL, even the best batters have had this bad day. The record for most ducks in a single IPL season belongs to Jos Buttler. The Rajasthan Royals opener was out for zero five times…
Abhinandan Singh’s route into the IPL reads differently from most modern Indian fast bowlers. Four years before his debut, he was still playing tennis-ball cricket in Pratapgarh, Uttar Pradesh. He did not touch a leather ball competitively until 2020, and he never came through the usual age-group domestic pipeline. What he had instead was genuine…
Sunrisers Hyderabad hold the record for the highest team scores in first 10 overs in an IPL innings. On 8 May 2024 in Hyderabad, Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma smashed 167 runs without losing a wicket in only 9.4 overs against Lucknow Super Giants. They chased down the target of 166 before the tenth over…
Jacob Bethell IPL 2027 Stats: Runs, Fifties, Price, Team Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s ₹2.60 crore punt on Jacob Bethell at the IPL 2025 mega auction in Jeddah was a bet on promise as much as production.

Lungi Ngidi IPL stats tell the story of a strike bowler who has never needed a long run of games to make his mark. Across 27 IPL matches the South African quick has taken 42 wickets at an average of 20.69 and a strike rate of 14.76 balls per wicket, numbers that place him among…
A duck is the one score no batter wants. In cricket, a duck means a batter walks back to the pavilion without scoring a single run. It can happen to the best players in the world, and the IPL is no different. Across 19 seasons of fast and fearless cricket, many great batters have recorded…
Bhuvneshwar Kumar IPL stats tell the story of the finest swing bowler the league has seen. Across 206 matches he has taken 226 wickets, becoming the first seam bowler to reach 200 IPL wickets and the first bowler ever to win the Purple Cap in back-to-back seasons. In IPL 2026 he rolled back the years…
Josh Hazlewood IPL 2027 Stats: Wickets, Price, Team Few overseas fast bowlers have bent an IPL season to their will the way Josh Hazlewood did in 2025. Royal Challengers Bengaluru paid Rs 12.50 crore for the Australian quick at the mega auction, and he repaid them with 22 wickets in 12 matches, the best return…
The IPL seasons with most centuries tell a clear story of how T20 batting has changed. In 2008, the first season of the league, only six hundreds were scored in the whole tournament. By 2024, that number had grown to 14, the most centuries ever scored in a single IPL season. A hundred in a…
Tom Curran’s IPL journey reads like a series of cameo appearances rather than a career. Across four stints with four different franchises, the England all-rounder has played just 13 matches since his 2018 debut. Yet within those 13 games sit two very different stories: a death bowler who kept getting picked for his skills in…
