Top 10 highest wicket-takers in IPL playoffs history​

In IPL playoffs, bowlers often make the difference, breaking partnerships, defending totals, and delivering under pressure. A handful of players have stood out by consistently stepping up in these high stakes matches.

Here’s the full list of the top 10 highest wicket takers in IPL playoff history:

No.	Players	Teams represented	Wickets
1	Dwayne Bravo	CSK, GL	28
2	Ravichandran Ashwin	CSK, DC, RR	21
3	Mohit Sharma	CSK, GT	20
4	Ravindra Jadeja	RR, CSK	19
5	Harbhajan Singh	MI, CSK	17
6	Lasith Malinga	MI	16
7	Jasprit Bumrah	MI	15
8	Amit Mishra	DC, SRH	14
9	Piyush Chawla	KKR, CSK	13
10	Sunil Narine	KKR	12

Dwayne Bravo leads the chart for a reason. In playoffs matches, he was the kind of bowler captains turned to when things got tight whether it was breaking a crucial stand or closing out games at the death.

Lasith Malinga, meanwhile, made a career out of dominating high pressure games. His pinpoint yorkers and ability to deliver under pressure made him a match winner time and again for Mumbai Indians.

Then there’s Jasprit Bumrah, who has carried that legacy into the modern era. Calm, precise, and almost unshakeable in big moments, Bumrah has already established himself as one of the most reliable playoffs bowlers despite having fewer games that the names above him.
