5 highest wicket takers in the IPL

#2 Amit Mishra

Amit Mishra is the most successful spinner in the IPL.

Amit Mishra is today the forgotten spinner of Indian cricket. He is a conventional leg spinner - with his classical leg spin, relying mostly on flight, drift and a leg break that turns big. He also puts in the odd googly to bamboozle the batsmen.

In the IPL Amit Mishra has played for a number of teams so far - he started with the Delhi Daredevils moved to the Deccan Chargers then to the Sunrisers Hyderabad and finally returned back to Delhi. He is the first and only player in the history of the IPL to take three hat tricks, having taken one with each of the teams he has played with.

Overall, he has taken 134 wickets in the IPL so far in 126 matches with best figures of 5/17. He also picked up three four wicket hauls and a solitary five-for on the way.
