Ten English players have featured in the 2024 IPL, eight of whom have been included in their T20 World Cup squad. Here’s how they’ve fared so far.

Moeen Ali – CSK

6 matches, 62 runs at 20.67, SR: 126.53, HS: 30
2 wickets at 35.50, ER: 8.87, BBI: 2-23

With Chennai’s multitude of all-rounders, the 2024 IPL has seen Moeen play a bit-part. Playing just six of CSK’s matches, he has only batted three times and is yet to bowl his full allocation.

Richard Gleeson – CSK

2 matches, 1 wicket at 71, ER: 9.06, BBI: 1-30

After being given an IPL debut last week by CSK, Gleeson made an immediate impact. He bowled five consecutive dot balls in his first over in the tournament, and picked up a wicket with the first ball of his following over. He was less effective in his second match, however, conceding figures of 0-41 against PBKS.

Phil Salt – KKR

11 matches, 429 runs at 42.40, SR: 183.33, HS: 89*

Salt’s performance in this year’s IPL has undoubtedly sealed his position at the top of the order for England in the T20 World Cup. Forming one half of KKR’s deadly opening partnership, he is averaging 43 with the bat at a strike rate of over 180. His player of the match performance against Lucknow saw him score 89* off 47, as KKR chased 161 within 16 overs.

Luke Wood – MI

2 matches, 1 wicket at 93.00, ER: 15.50, BBI: 68-1

Featuring in just two games, Wood’s debut IPL season has not gone the way he’d have hoped so far. His first match saw him concede 25 runs off his two overs. He managed a wicket in his second but was dispatched for 68 as Mumbai conceded 257.

Liam Livingstone – PBKS

6 matches, 111 runs at 27.75, SR: 146.05, HS: 38*
3 wickets at 18.66, ER: 6.22. BBI: 19-2

Livingstone started well for the PBKS, making 38* off 21 balls in his first appearance. However, he has not played since mid-April, despite taking 2-19 off his four overs in his most recent match.

Sam Curran – PBKS

11 matches, 13 wickets at 26.30, ER: 9.68, BBI: 28-3
185 runs at 20.58, SR: 114.19, HS: 63

Standing in as captain for Shikhar Dhawan for the second half of the group stage, Curran has failed to change Punjab’s fortunes. After scoring 63 in his first game, he hasn’t passed 30 since, striking at under 120. Although he has 13 wickets, he has been expensive with the ball in a tough season for bowlers.

Jonny Bairstow – PBKS

9 matches, 257 runs at 32.13, SR: 163.69, HS: 108*

Dropped after six games, Bairstow, as notion goes, came back strong with something to prove. He scored 108* vs KKR on return to help Punjab Kings pull off the highest successful T20 chase ever. His re-found form could be crucial for England’s bid to retain the T20 World Cup next month.

Jos Buttler – RR

9 matches, 319 runs at 45.57, SR: 149.76, HS: 107*

With question marks surrounding his form in the early stages, the England skipper hit two brilliant centuries in chases. With a more than respectable strike rate of 150, Buttler’s 319 runs have powered the Royals up the standings.

Will Jacks – RCB

6 matches, 177 runs at 35.40, SR: 186.31, HS: 100*
2 wickets at 39.50, ER: 11.29, BBI: 23-1

Starting the tournament carrying drinks, Jacks took his opportunity impeccably when it came. He scored 55 off 32 vs KKR before going ballistics against Gujarat Titans. His maiden IPL hundred came off 41 balls, including seven sixes off his last 11 deliveries.

Reece Topley – RCB

4 matches, 4 wickets at 42.00, ER: 11.20, BBI: 2-27

RCB’s bowling attack has struggled in 2024 and Topley is no different. Going at over 11 an over, his four wickets have come at 42. Despite taking 2/27 against Rajasthan Royals, Topley was dropped in mid-April as RCB continue to squeeze four overseas into their top six.
