IPL: The Indian Premier League – IPL is played in the shortest form of the game called the T20 which is said to be a cruel format for the bowlers because the holders of the white cherry cannot miss their length even by an inch and if they do it even slightly, then the batters are ready to dispatch that delivery outside the boundary.
In the shortest format and the franchise league tournament like the IPL, the bowlers have a minimum of advantage. They can utilise the moisture in the start and the field restrictions in the first six overs can also help them a bit. Still, the bowlers needs to bowl in the right areas, so that they can get the batsmen out and put their team in a commanding position.
In this era of the IPL, there are some bowlers who have completed a century of wickets to their names and this is a big achievement for them. In that some of the bowlers have reached the hundred scalps faster than the others. South Africa’s Kagiso Rabada is the fastest bowler to pick 100 scalps and also took lesser deliveries to achieve this record in the cash-rich league tournament.

Kagiso Rabada is South Africa’s genuine pace bowler and is also an excellent bowler at the Test level and the other two limited-overs formats as well. Rabada played for the Punjab Kings when he completed the milestone of picking up a century of wickets in the IPL in the 2023 season.
Now the star pace bowler, Rabada will play for Gujarat Titans in this season of the IPL. GT won their first title in their inaugural season itself under Hardik Pandya in the IPL 2022 edition. They defeated Rajasthan Royals in that final match. In the IPL 2025 season, the Titans will again aim to clinch the glory for the second time and in that, Kagiso Rabada will play a key role.
The speciality of the swing king, Kagiso is that he has the knack of picking up wickets with the new white cherry and the backend overs under high-pressure situations. His variations do not allow even the world’s best batsmen to score runs off him. He can bowl at high speed, scramble deliveries and slower balls at will.
