Stats: Bowlers who conceded most 6s in IPL 7
↵
Mumbai Indians’ left arm spinner Pragyan Ojha conceded the most number of sixes in the just concluded edition of the Indian Premier League (22). Far off from the one who helped the Mumbai-based franchise to a double last season – IPL and CLT20 titles – he was a liability this time around, conceding plenty of runs and hardly picking up any wickets to help his team’s cause.
Having been one of the most consistent bowlers in the history of the league, no one saw this coming; he has further damaged his chances for a national comeback in limited overs cricket, where he is already behind the likes of Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja and Amit Mishra in the pecking order.
Although Jadeja and Ashwin have conceded only one less six, they have picked up 19 and 16 wickets, respectively, as compared to Ojha’s 4. Karn Sharma has 15 wickets, too.
While Mishra has had an equally disappointing tournament, Ojha has failed to capitalise on it.
