The T20 format is a bit cruel for bowlers. There are high chances of batters taking them for a ride, slogging runs at massive strike rates.
However, bowlers are now coming up with tactics to send the batters back into the hut. When they are on song, we can even expect them to deliver the best bowling performances in a match.
The IPL has been home to some of the finest bowlers, all showcasing their craft on the grand stage. The 2024 IPL is here, and bowlers are raring to display their skills.
This article will mention the top 10 best bowling figures registered by bowlers in IPL 2024.

Talking Points
Akash Madhwal was the find of the last season, turning up for the Mumbai Indians. He delivered the best bowling figures, with a 5 for 5 against LSG in the Eliminator. Madhwal must be pumped up to repeat his carnage in IPL 2024 as well.
Apart from him, keep an eye on experienced campaigners such as Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Yuzvendra Chahal, and Mohit Sharma to send batters scratching their minds.
Sohail Tanvir, Adam Zampa, and Alzarri Joseph picked up 6 wickets in an IPL innings, with the latter having the best figures of 6/12 in the IPL’s history. If any bowler manages to join them or sneak past them in the 17th edition, it will be a spectacle in itself.
