Yuzvendra Chahal might not have ended up on the winners podium after Rajasthan Royals lost to Gujarat Titans in the IPL final but had a lot to be pleased about with his overall performance in the IPL 2022.

Going into the match, Chahal was in second position despite having taken the same number of wickets (26) as RCB's Wanindu Hasaranga. But by the virtue of a better economy rate, the Sri Lankan was heading the list. In the IPL final on Sunday, Chahal took one wicket to take the outright lead in the Purple Cap race.

David Miller has become in IPL 2022. The South African’s cracking, 38-bal 68 not out turned the 189-run chase a cruise for the Gujarat Titans. It was the umpteenth time that Miller provided the perfect finishing touches to the Gujarat Titans innings this season. While the quickfire cameos have been plenty, his top score- a match-turning 51-ball unbeaten 94 against Chennai Super Kings at Pune - was a knock for the ages, as he bailed his team out of hail in the company of Rashid Khan. Enjoying by far the best of his nine IPL seasons so far, the 32-year-old South African has scored 449 runs in 15 games at an average of 64.14 to become the top run-scorer for Gujarat Titans in this edition. Playing at No 5, he’s looked far more dangerous than when he turned out for the Rajasthan Royals or Punjab Kings. His solid blows have been a massive factor in GT’s superb run to the final in the franchise’s first season itself.
