IPL 2025 Best Bowling Attack Teams: Every team has tried to build a strong squad for IPL 2025, but almost every team will enter the field with at least one shortcoming. Some teams lack a finisher batsman, others are missing a lead spin bowler, and some will face issues in middle-order batting. Looking specifically at the bowling department, this season has seen changes with players like Mohammed Shami, Mitchell Starc, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Yuzvendra Chahal. Although there is still a lot of time before the season starts, let’s take a look at which team has the best bowling lineup among all 10 teams.

1. Mumbai Indians (MI)

Mumbai Indians retained Jasprit Bumrah for Rs 18 crore, so Bumrah will lead MI’s pace attack. This time, the team has swing masters like Trent Boult and Deepak Chahar, and MI has further strengthened its bowling by bringing in Afghanistan’s young Allah Ghazanfar. Mitchell Santner and Karn Sharma will also join Ghazanfar in spin bowling. MI also boasts the world’s number-1 all-rounder, Hardik Pandya.

2. Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)

Sunrisers Hyderabad has strengthened its bowling attack for IPL 2025. Captain Pat Cummins will again lead the pace attack. Mohammed Shami has joined SRH to support him, and Harshal Patel’s slower balls can trouble any batting line-up. The team also has Brydon Carse, Jaydev Unadkat, Simarjit Singh, and Sri Lankan star Ishan Malinga as backups. The spin department will be led by Rahul Chahar and Adam Zampa.

3. Gujarat Titans (GT)

Gujarat Titans may not have placed a big bid in the mega auction, but they are one of the strongest teams for IPL 2025. The fast-bowling department will be led by Kagiso Rabada, Mohammad Siraj, Ishant Sharma, and Prasidh Krishna. In addition, Gerald Coetzee and India’s young star Arshad Khan are also in the squad. Gujarat has a strong spin attack led by Rashid Khan, with support from Washington Sundar and Sai Kishore.
