Overview
What the figures show

The biggest return came in 2023: 301 runs struck at 160.1 for Gujarat Titans. The 69 made in 2025 is the highest score of that IPL career. Fifty has been passed seven times.

How this page was worked out
Where these figures come from
Sources for this profile
- IPL figures computed from ball-by-ball records of 1,243 IPL matches.
- Date of birth, playing style and photograph come from a third-party player feed, matched by name.
How the numbers are derived
- A wide is not a ball faced; a no ball is.
- Byes and leg byes are not charged to the bowler; wides and no balls are.
- Six kinds of dismissal are credited to a bowler. A run out is not one of them.
- An average is runs over dismissals, and is left blank rather than shown as infinite.
