List of all IPL Purple Cap Winners 2008 – 2024

Dwayne Bravo, who played for CSK in 2013 and 2015, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who played for Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2016 and 2017, are the two bowlers who have won the Purple Cap twice. Bravo’s 32 wickets in 2013 are the joint-most wickets taken by any bowler in any single edition. Harshal Patel equaled this figure in 2021 while playing for RCB. Rajasthan Royals’ Sohail Tanvir was the first player to win the Purple Cap in the IPL, taking 22 wickets in 11 matches in the inaugural edition in 2008. Interestingly, only three times have the leading wicket-takers in the tournament come from teams that ultimately became champions – Sohail Tanvir of Rajasthan Royals in 2008, RP Singh of Deccan Chargers in 2009 and Bhuvneshwar Kumar of Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2016.
