We have come to the end of the league stage of the seventh season of IPL. Let us take a look as to who have been the top runs scorers and wicket-takers in this season of IPL. KKR players top the list but there are few shocking names in the list as well –
List of Top run scorers –
Name | Matches | Runs | Highest Score |
Robin Uthappa (KKR) | 14 | 613 | 83* |
Dwayne Smith (CSK) | 14 | 535 | 79 |
Glenn Maxwell (KXIP) | 13 | 533 | 95 |
David Warner (SRH) | 14 | 528 | 90 |
JP Duminy (DD) | 14 | 410 | 67* |
No one expected Robin Uthappa to be on top but his recent form has made it possible. Glenn Maxwell has fallen to the 3rd spot after couple of poor innings. Of the Top 5 only the Top 3 would fight it out for the orange cap as David Warner and JP Duminy couldn’t help their team make it to the play-offs.
List of Top Wicket-takers –
Name | Matches | Wickets | Best Bowling |
Sunil Narine (KKR) | 14 | 20 | 4/20 |
Bhuvneshwar Kumar (SRH) | 14 | 20 | 4/14 |
Mohit Sharma (CSK) | 14 | 19 | 4/14 |
Sandeep Sharma (KXIP) | 10 | 17 | 3/15 |
Ravindra Jadeja (CSK) | 14 | 17 | 4/12 |
As expected Sunil Narine, the mystery bowler is on top, though in the middle he had lost his way but now he is back in form. Apart from him Bhuvneshwar Kumar is also on top but his team couldn’t make it to the play-offs. Sandeep Sharma has been find of the tournament. He has taken 17 wickets in just 10 innings in which he has bowled.
