Top 5 All rounders to play in IPL history

Check out some of the top all-rounders to play in the IPL history.

In the IPL, there has always been demand for good all-rounders. Over the years, the IPL has been graced with some prominent all-rounders showing their potential with both bat and ball. While some qualify as batting all-rounders, many are considered to be bowling all-rounders, which means they are specialists in a particular skill set but handy with the other skill set. Let us check out top 5 all-rounders in the history of IPL.

Best all-rounders in IPL

Andre Russell

A part of the KKR camp, Andre Russell will surely go down as one of the top all-rounders in IPL history. Speaking about his IPL records, Russell has scored 2484 runs at an excellent strike rate of almost 175. With the ball, Russell has 115 wickets in 126 games. Over the years, Russell has single-handedly won matches for the Men in Purple and Gold. The Jamaican cricketer will look to contribute more for KKR in the upcoming edition.

Kieron Pollard

Pollard has been a one-team man and has played for the Mumbai Indians from 2010-2022. His big-hitting and explosive performances in the middle and lower order have been a treat to watch. Speaking about his numbers in the IPL, the all-rounder has scored 3,412 runs in 189 matches at an average of 28.67 and a strike rate of 147.32. He has also taken 69 wickets with his bowling and has been a brilliant fielder, taking 103 catches in his IPL career.

Dwayne Bravo

One of the leading wicket-takers in the IPL, Dwayne Bravo, has also shown his magic with the bat in the cash-rich league. In the IPL, the all-rounder played his last game back in 2022, as he finished with 183 scalps and scoring 1560 runs in 161 games.

Ravindra Jadeja

The India international has played for multiple franchises in IPL but will always be remembered as a CSK legend. He has been a part of the team since 2012, and apart from his left-arm orthodox spin bowling and aggressive batting in the middle order, he is sensational on the field. Jadeja’s heroics with the bat in IPL 2022 against GT will surely go down as one of the most memorable finishes in IPL history.

Shane Watson

Another legend on the list, Shane Watson scored 3874 runs in 145 IPL matches at an average of 30.99 and a strike rate of 137.91. He has also taken 92 wickets with his medium-fast bowling. The former Australian cricketer made his debut in the IPL in 2008 for the Rajasthan Royals and was instrumental in helping them win the inaugural title.
