- Dale Steyn – 978 dots:
Steyn might have been a tad off colour since the last couple of editions, but his ability as a pacer in the IPL has been phenomenal. Steyn, with 978 dot balls out of 3058 deliveries, is second on the list and speaks volumes about his accuracy with the new ball.
With almost 32% of his deliveries being dots, Steyn has been an absolute champion in the IPL as well. Fans this time around, however, will not see Steyn steaming in as the South African pacer battles a career-threatening shoulder injury.
