From CricArcade's IPL records, 2008 to 2013 · Sources

Dimitri Mascarenhas, a bowler, played five IPL seasons for two franchises. One title came along the way.

The arrival

Dimitri Mascarenhas arrived through the auction: Rajasthan Royals paid ₹40 lakh (US$100k), at the very first IPL auction.

That first season brought 1 match, 9 runs and 2 wickets, and ended with Rajasthan Royals as champions.

The peak

The best season was 2012, for Kings XI Punjab: 7 wickets at 6.56 runs an over, while the league's bowlers went for 7.64, with best figures of 5 for 25.

Franchise by franchise

2008 to 2010, Rajasthan Royals. Bought at the 2008 auction for ₹40 lakh. 8 matches and 12 wickets; champions in 2008.

2012 to 2013, Kings XI Punjab. Arrived outside the auction. 5 matches and 7 wickets.

2 spells with two franchises in all. The longest was with Rajasthan Royals, 2008 to 2010. 2011 is missing from the record: a season without an IPL appearance.

How the wickets came

With the ball, 19 wickets in 308 deliveries, at 6.94 runs an over against a league rate of 7.57 for the same seasons: 0.63 an over cheaper than the typical bowler of the time, the mark of a bowler who kept things tight. There was one four-wicket haul, and the best figures were 5 for 25.

The fielding record: 2 catches.

At the auction

Dimitri Mascarenhas went under the hammer twice. The highest price was ₹45 lakh (US$100k), paid by Kings XI Punjab in 2011. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Kings XI Punjab in 2011.

Seasons without an auction entry were played under a retention, a trade or a signing made outside the auction.

The legacy

Dimitri Mascarenhas made 13 IPL appearances, the last for Kings XI Punjab in 2013, and won 1 player-of-the-match award.
