The 2022 winner, Yuzvendra Chahal, will be a well-liked option as he looks to build on his strong performance from the previous year, but he won’t be the only one. Rashid Khan, the Afghanistan T20I captain, will also have his sights set on the cap.
Only two bowlers have ever won the Purple Cap twice: Bhuvneshwar Kumar won it back-to-back in 2016 and 2017, and Dwayne Bravo won it in 2013 and 2015. Two players have ever claimed 32 wickets in an IPL season: Dwayne Bravo in 2013 and Harshal Patel in 2021.
