3 bowlers with most no-balls in Indian Premier League history

Cricket is a sport that is incredibly unpredictable, where any team can lose a game with just one small mistake. Many losses have occurred in recent years, yet no ball is primarily to blame. Bowling a no-ball in the richest cricket league in the world, which is the Indian Premier League, is unacceptable. When a bowler steps outside a line, the no ball is awarded, resulting in an additional run and a free hit.

All players are encouraged to bowl one step back from the line because stepping off the line is a stupid error. Here we will take a look at 3 bowlers who have bowled the most no. of no-balls in the history of IPL.

1. Jasprit Bumrah

India's star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is one of the best bowlers of this generation. His bowling action is completely unique from other bowlers but it helps him generate good pace and extra bounce. However, he hasn't yet found a solution for the issues with the no-balls. He competes in the IPL for the Mumbai Indians and has made some spectacular plays for the squad. But he has made an unwanted record of bowling the most no-balls in IPL history, 28 in 120 games at an average of 23.30.

2. Umesh Yadav

One of the top pacers on the Indian cricket squad, Umesh Yadav was ignored by the Indian Team management for a long time but he has redeemed himself now and performing pretty well for the national team. However, he also occasionally makes errors as well.

He is, currently, playing for the Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2023. In 133 games, Umesh has had 24 no-balls, averaging 29.02. Due to his short bowling stride, the majority of no-balls land on the high waist. He is listed in second place.

Former Indian fast bowler, S Sreesanth, who was once part of the 2007 and 2011 World cup winning squad of the Indian team, was expelled from the Indian Cricket Board for fixing games. If certain circumstances had not occurred to him, he might have had a tremendous career as an Indian fast bowler. Sreesanth has played 44 games with an average of 29.85 and 23 no-balls in IPL.
