Stats: Top 5 Leading Wicket Takers In IPL 1

  1. Harbhajan Singh – 119 wickets:

Harbhajan has time and again proved his skills as a match winner for the Mumbai Indians and is a champion bowler in the shortest format. With 119 wickets in 125 outings for the Mumbai Indians in the IPL, Harbhajan has played a far greater role than what the numbers alone suggest.

He has been a great source of inspiration for budding Mumbai players and has easily handled the workload during the middle overs. His economy rate of just 7 is just what the captain needs from his lead spinner as he strangles the batsmen down with his accuracy.

Being the evergreen champion off-spinner he has been over the years, one can expect another strong performance from him this time around as well.
