    What's the story

    The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 season is set to start with its second phase from September 19 onwards in the UAE.

    The IPL was earlier suspended by the BCCI midway in the season after several players contracted the novel coronavirus.

    The teams will once again need to start fresh as they vie for playoffs qualification.

    Here we decode the key stats.

    Royal Challengers Bangalore pacer Harshal Patel has been a surprise leader in terms of wickets this season.

    He has picked up 17 scalps at just 15.11.

    Fellow Indian pacer Avesh Khan of Delhi Capitals has 14 wickets at 16.50.

    He is tied alongside Rajasthan Royals all-rounder Chris Morris, who has an average of 16.00.

    Rahul has slammed the most sixes this season (16). Sunrisers Hyderabad's Jonny Bairstow has also managed to hit 15 sixes.

    Dhawan has hit the most fours (43) and is followed by his opening partner Prithvi Shaw (37).

    Rahul and Faf have hit the joint-most fifties (4).
