List of IPL Champions' Best Bowlers in the Final

Lasith Malinga — MI 2019

Last-Ball Yorker to Win IPL Final by 1 Run

Lasith Malinga's last-ball perfect yorker that dismissed Shardul Thakur in the 2019 final — denying CSK the 1 run they needed — is the single most iconic bowling delivery in IPL final history. His figures across the full match were outstanding throughout.

Mitchell Starc — KKR 2024

2/14 in 4 Overs — SRH Bowled for 113 (Lowest Ever Final Total)

Mitchell Starc's 2/14 in the 2024 final was the catalyst for KKR's demolition of SRH. The highest-priced player in IPL 2024 auction delivered on cricket's biggest franchise stage, helping bowl SRH out for 113 — the lowest total in any IPL final.

Krunal Pandya — RCB 2025

Match-Winning Bowling Spell to Win RCB Maiden Title

Krunal Pandya's bowling in the 2025 final was the decisive factor in RCB defending 190 against Punjab Kings. His spell in the middle overs disrupted PBKS's chase and earned him Man of the Match — his second such award in an IPL final (after 2017 with MI).

RP Singh — DC 2009

Key Bowling Spell to Defend DC's Total in South Africa

RP Singh's disciplined pace bowling was the key to Deccan Chargers defending 143 in the 2009 South Africa final. His incisive bowling at the top reduced RCB early and set the defensive platform for DC's title win.

Andre Russell — KKR 2024

3/19 in the 2024 Final to Help Bowl SRH for 113

Andre Russell's 3/19 in the 2024 IPL final complemented Mitchell Starc's bowling as KKR dismantled SRH's batting to 113 all out — making it a joint effort by two of T20 cricket's most destructive all-rounders in history's most one-sided final.
