In cricket, a five-wicket haul (also known as a "five-for" or "fifer")[3][4] refers to a bowler taking five or more wickets in a single innings. This is regarded as a notable achievement.[5] The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a professional Twenty20 cricket league in India,[6] which has been held annually since its first season in 2008.[7] In the nine seasons played, fifteen five-wicket hauls have been taken by different bowlers. Players from nine of the thirteen teams have taken five-wicket hauls; Pune Warriors India, Kochi Tuskers Kerala, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Gujarat Lions are the only franchises for which a player has not taken a five-wicket haul.[1]
The first five-wicket haul was taken by Sohail Tanvir of the Rajasthan Royals against the Chennai Super Kings on 4 May 2008.[8] Tanvir took six wickets for fourteen runs, the best bowling figures in an innings by a player in the competition and the sole six-wicket haul.[1] The most recent five-wicket haul was taken by James Faulkner of the Rajasthan Royals against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Hyderabad on 17 May 2013.[9] The most economical five-wicket haul was taken by Anil Kumble of the Royal Challengers Bangalore, who claimed five wickets with an economy rate of 1.57 and an bowling average of 1.00 in the 2009 season, and won the "best breakthrough performance" award for it.[1][10][11] Dimitri Mascarenhas of the Kings XI Punjab took the least economical five-wicket haul, bowling with an economy rate of 6.25.[1]
James Faulkner of the Rajasthan Royals is the only bowler who has taken two five-wicket hauls in the IPL, both being against the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 2013 season.[1] Three five-wickets hauls have been taken by players of the Mumbai Indians and the Rajasthan Royals, respectively, which is more than any other team.[1] Kings XI Punjab and Sunrisers Hyderabad have had the highest number of five-wicket hauls against them, with three each.[12] Three five-wicket hauls have been taken at the Feroz Shah Kotla Ground.[1] Fifty-five four-wicket hauls have been taken in the competition, 13 of which were taken in fewer than four overs.[12]
The list includes all the five-wicket hauls taken in the IPL, and is correct as of the 2016 season. The list does not cover the games played by the IPL teams in other tournaments, such as the Champions League Twenty20, the British Asian Cup or the 2008 Kolkata Knight Riders tour of Australia.
