A list of the best all-round performances by cricketers in IPL finals, combining both batting and bowling contributions in the same match.

5 itemsUpdated Mar 23, 2026

All-round performances in IPL finals — where a player contributes significantly with both bat and ball — are the rarest and most celebrated achievements in the tournament's showpiece event. Yusuf Pathan's 56 runs and 3 wickets in the 2008 inaugural final remains the greatest single all-round performance in an IPL final. Krunal Pandya has won Man of the Match in two finals (2017 and 2025) with all-round contributions. Ben Cutting's 39 off 15 balls and his fielding effort in the 2016 final, Hardik Pandya's captain-all-rounder display in 2022, and Ravindra Jadeja's batting heroics in the 2023 final highlight the importance of versatile contributors in the IPL showpiece.
