The 15th edition of the Indian Premier League, IPL 2022, is expected to be much more exciting with the edition of two new teams. The 10-team T20 tournament is all set to begin on March 26. In the opening clash, Chennai Super Kings will lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

Bowlers have a challenging job in a T20 tournament like IPL. They have just 4 overs to showcase their strength. Moreover, since batsmen always try to smash quickfire knocks, bowlers often get hit for a lot of runs too. However, there are some bowlers who have emerged as big wicket-takers in the tournament. Here we take a glance at 5 bowlers with the best strike rates in the Indian Premier League.
