Kagiso Rabada
Gujarat Titans added South African fast-bowling sensation Kagiso Rabada to their squad for Rs 10.75 crore. A powerhouse in the powerplay, Rabada is known for dismantling top orders. With 117 wickets in 80 IPL matches, he is all set to lead Gujarat’s pace attack. Rabada has the ability to swing the new ball apart from his deadly yorkers towards the ending phase of an innings. He is surely one of the strong contenders to win the purple cap in IPL 2025.

With 51 wickets in 41 IPL matches, Starc’s ability to deliver under pressure could make him the backbone of Delhi’s bowling lineup.
