The T20 version of cricket is considered a batsman format. However, over the years bowlers have had an impact on the shape through their differences. The arrival of the T20 led to mysterious joints and spinners. IPL brings in many new talents every year who impress them with their bowling skills. The yorker is the most dangerous weapon for you among the fast shooters. In this feature, we take a look at the Yorker kings in the IPL.6 yorker kings of the IPL1. Lasith Malinga | Yorker KingMumbai Indians and fans, in general, will miss the IPL's original Yorker king, Lasith Malinga. The sling launcher also had a variety in the yorker. It can be just as effective for a slow ball as it was to throw the ball into a blocked hole. Malinga won many matches for Mumbai Indians with the Indomitable Yorker. No matter how difficult the situation was, Mumbai knew she could see Malinga. And more often than not, the legend of Lanka hit the mark.Lasith Malinga’s IPL numbers: Matches – 122, Wickets – 170, SR – 16.62, Economy – 7.142. T Natarajan | Yorker King In IndiaT Natarajan was so good at IPL 2020 that he became the king of the IPL in New York, replacing Malinga who missed the season. Every time SRH seemed to be in trouble, Captain David Warner turned to NATO. And the soft-spoken left-handed seamstress delivered it almost every time. His ability to spot cricketers stunned him. In a match against the Delhi Capitals, he managed to defeat six Yorkers in a row. But, it was his unbeaten performance to bid farewell to AB de Villiers in the Eliminator against RCB that stood out. Since then, surprisingly, Natarajan has made a name for himself with an Indian team.T Natarajan’s IPL numbers: Matches – 22, Wickets – 18, SR- 25.16, Economy – 8.193. Jasprit Bumrah | Yorker King In IndiaPlaying under Malinga Jaspreet Bumrah definitely helped him improve his game as a bowler. India has benefited greatly from its results. Like Malinga, Bumrah also has a unique business, but of an entirely different kind: quirky, if you will. But he undoubtedly played a part in making his youth right. Aside from Malinga, Bumrah has been the most consistent when it comes to mastering block hole wiring. He's come down to countless yorkers, but his cries for Shikhar Dhawan last season are still fresh in mind.Jasprit Bumrah’s IPL numbers: Matches – 92, Wickets – 109, SR- 19.19, Economy – 7.414. Kagiso Rabada | Yorker KingThe South African pacemaker has been in perfect condition for the past two seasons at Delhi Capitals. It is one of the main reasons why the franchise was able to improve its fortunes. The Kagiso Rabada is quick and accurate. With experience, you will only get smarter. And when Rabada decides to extradite Yorker King, he is rarely wrong. Ask Andre Russell, best known for his pacer at IPL 2019, about the Super Over, too. Also last season, he put most of his labors on the spot.Kagiso Rabada’s IPL numbers: Matches – 35, Wickets – 61, SR- 13.18, Economy – 13.185. Jofra Archer | Yorker KingUnlike other fast bowlers, Jofra Archer likes to use the yorker as a surprise weapon. He likes to hold the ball away as he shoots the hitter's throat. He also has a highly efficient slowball. But, when he decides to play against a Yorker, the goalkeeper surprises hitting more than once. His height and speed make it extremely difficult for a batsman to face him. In the 2018 edition, Shakib Al-Hassan threw the New Yorker straight. Even a hitter with Shakib's skill couldn't do anything to clear the ball. He was the best bowler for the Rajasthan Royals last year and if he is not available for the IPL 2021 it will be a huge blow to the franchise.Jofra Archer’s IPL numbers: Matches – 35, Wickets – 46, SR – 17.93, Economy – 7.136. Anrich Nortje | Yorker KingHe may have only played one season, but Enrique Nortje made such an impressive debut at IPL 2020 that his name is worth mentioning. Nortje released the fastest delivery in IPL history last season. His fast pace meant that when he went to the yorker, the batsmen were quick to play the shot. However, what worked in his favor was its accuracy. With his speed, his throw into the hole became doubly fatal. Last season, Nortje starred as Rahul Tripathi along with the awesome superhero.Anrich Nortje’s IPL numbers: Matches – 16, Wickets – 22, SR – 16.63, Economy – 8.39Also, Read - Who is king of cricket in world? | PITCHHIGH
