5) Vinay KumarOne of the early success stories of the IPL, Vinay Kumar's record of 84 wickets in 77 matches is enough to guarantee him fifth spot. Although he is touch expensive towards the end of the innings, he has the courage to fight it out, and, when he gets it right, he is quite adept with his arsenal of slower balls, bouncers and yorkers. After playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kochi Tuskers Kerala, Kumar is now playing for Kolkata Knight Riders.
