#1 Basil Thampi (4-0-70-0)
The young Kerala player, who won the Emerging players' trophy in last year's IPL, was picked up by Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2018 Auctions, because of his ability to deliver perfect yorkers in the death overs.

Having begun this year's IPL on a good note by picking up 5 wickets in 3 matches, Basil Thampi's IPL 2018 journey went completely downhill in a match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Sunrisers Hyderabad at M. Chinnaswamy stadium on 17 May 2018.
In that particular game, Basil Thampi's bowling was smashed all around the park by RCB batsmen and Thampi ended up bowling the most expensive spell in the history of IPL with 4-0-70-0, thereby breaking Ishant Sharma's record which had stood for five long years.
