IPL 2025: The 2025-edition of the Indian Premier League is full of surprises so far and it is still giving a lot of goosebumps to cricketing world with it’s drama and excitement. Yesterday’s match was nothing short of a brilliant cricketing game between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at Chepauk.
The game was dominated with the brilliance of RCB with both bat and bowl. But there was an excitement part of the game was when the former CSK skipper and Chennai’s “THALA” MS Dhoni walked in to bat and clocked back the time by smashing balls of the park which amused fans. But, there’s a young bowler who proved to be the difference in CSK bowling.
When every bowler was getting hammered, even old guns (Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin) were getting smacked, the young Afghan leggie Noor Ahmad stood tall among them and bowled brilliantly.

Purple Cap Holder
In just 2 games with seven wickets, Ahmad is the leading wicket-taker in this ongoing IPL season and already has been CSK’s best bowler so far and this proves why he is worth every penny!
What Makes Noor Ahmad Special
Explosive Approach
Ahmad’s quick run-up gives him additional momentum that results in skiddy deliveries that are hard to anticipate.
Mystery Factor
Quick arm action coupled with the capacity to mask his stock ball and googly makes him a thorn in the flesh of batters.
Pace + Spin = Trouble
Not being the conventional fastball wrist spinner, he is quicker in terms of speed, and as a result, it becomes challenging for batters to get to him on the track.
Massive Drift
The revs he produces create massive drift, pushing batters out of their position even before the ball reaches them.
