Ishant Sharma

Ishant Sharma, the third-best pacer with such unbeatable bowling statistics in all IPL seasons so far, is ranked no. 5 on the list. Ishant took five wickets against Kochi Tuskers Kerala while playing for the Deccan Chargers, a team led by Kumar Sangakkara. He did this in just three overs. DC had given Kochi Tuskers a mini goal of 130 runs, but Ishant Sharma kept Kochi Tuskers’ batters to himself and helped his team win.

Amit Mishra

Amit Mishra, a seasoned bowler for Delhi Capitals, is on the verge of breaking the IPL record for most wickets taken. Lasith Malinga, a former cricketer for Mumbai Indians and Sri Lanka, currently owns the record for taking the most wickets in the lucrative T20 competition. The 38-year-old aggressive leg-spinner needs just five more to surpass that mark. Mishra currently has 166 wickets under his belt, and if he can claim five more, he will pass Malinga to become the most prolific wicket-taker in IPL history.
