It was the bowler’s IPL this season. They were always one step ahead of the batters in a format that is increasingly suiting the latter. Wickets were the order of the day. There isn’t a better way to stop runs than to pick up wickets. Bowlers who have the knack of picking wickets will always be in demand. Here in this article, we talk about Bowlers With Best Strike Rates.
We Look At The Bowlers With Best Strike Rates This season:
#5 Marcus Stoinis (10.50)
He didn’t have a memorable IPL even though he put in a couple of impactful performances. Marcus Stoinis it can be argued that wasn’t utilized properly this season. His bowling was hardly ever used. Hence it comes as no surprise that Stoinis, the bowler featured on this list. He sent down 7 overs conceding 79 runs. But picked up 4 wickets in the process. His strike rate of 10.5 is the fifth-best this season.
#4 Andre Russell (9.94)
After a forgettable couple of seasons, Andre Russell, was back into business this season. Russell, the bowler was in top form in IPL 2022. He bowled one of the spells of the tournament in the game against Gujarat Titans. His 4 for 5 was part of the highlights reel of the IPL. Russell’s strike rate was an outstanding 9.94. He picked up a total of 17 wickets this season.
#3 Ayush Badoni (6.00)
He was one of the finds of the tournament. But this is a list where his name is well and truly a surprise. Ayush Badoni was hardly used for two overs the whole season. But importantly, Badoni provided a timely breakthrough in the spell. His round-arm action was difficult to get away with. He picked up a solitary wicket striking at every 6 balls.
#2 Ramandeep Singh (6.00)
The Mumbai Indians allrounder is placed second on this list. He found his footing in the latter half of the tournament. In one of the games, he bowled the death overs with elan. His best figures included a spell of 3 for 20. Singh finished with a total of 6 wickets. But the fact that he emerged as a wicket-taker is a healthy sign for the franchise. His strike rate of 6 is fantastic.
#1 Dewald Brevis (3.00)
Who would have thought an upcoming batting superstar will top the list for bowlers with high strike rates. It is mainly owing to the fact that he just had to send out three deliveries the whole season. Dewald Brevis picked up the wicket of Virat Kohli with his very first delivery in the IPL. Hence this unbelievable strike rate of 3 tops the charts.
