Harshal Patel Leads Purple Cap Race in IPL 2024
As IPL 2024 nears its conclusion, the competition for the Purple Cap, awarded to the tournament’s leading wicket-taker, appears to have a clear frontrunner. Harshal Patel, currently playing for Punjab Kings, tops the charts with an impressive 24 wickets in 14 matches. Despite Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s early exit, Patel’s exceptional performance remains a highlight of the season. With an economy rate that complements his wicket tally, Patel’s dominance in the bowling department has set a high standard.
Varun Chakraborty and T Natarajan in Contention
Kolkata Knight Riders’ Varun Chakraborty is in the third position. He has 20 wickets to his name. They have a chance to reach the top spot in the finals. But in the final, they have to take 4 wickets in 4 overs. Aur to aur, Use economy rate bhi achcha rakna hoga hoga. If Varun Chakraborty succeeds in this then he can get the Purple Cap. Taking four wickets in the T20 format is not easy. It looks like the purple cap will remain on the head of Harshal Patel.
T Natarajan is in the race for Sunrisers Hyderabad. But it will not be possible for them to cover such a long distance. He has taken a total of 18 wickets in 13 matches. They need 6 wickets to reach the top spot. This cannot happen. Even here, Harshal Patel’s party is looking strong. T Natarajan has also dropped out of the race. The IPL 2024 title will indeed go to Kolkata or Hyderabad but the level of Orange Cap and Purple Cap is going to be good.
