Chawla has been incredibly consistent in the IPL

Piyush Chawla may have only played 35 matches for India but he has done something few players manage to achieve throughout the course of their entire career. The leg spinner has won both the World T20 and the World Cup while also representing his country across all three formats.

While he only has 43 wickets in 35 matches, his last appearance for India came in 2017. Still only 28, Chawla still has a chance of playing for India again but it will take a long time before he comes close to his tally of wickets in the IPL.

The leggie is the fourth-leading wicket-taker in the tournament's history and has 126 scalps in 129 matches. He has been an ever-present since the start of the IPL, whether it was for Kings XI Punjab or Kolkata Knight Riders.
