Dale Steyn:
Arguably the finest pacer of this generation, the South Africa star has endured an injury-ridden few years but it has not stopped him to give this tiring tournament a miss. Bought in 2008 by Royal Challengers Bangalore, Steyn remained with the Bangalore-based franchise for three seasons before playing his trade for Deccan Chargers for a couple of seasons. He then moved to Sunrisers Hyderabad after Deccan Chargers were terminated from the IPL. And after spending two seasons with the Sunrisers, he was bought by Gujarat Lions in 2016.
The right-arm pacer has picked up 92 wickets in 90 IPL matches so far.
