Owais Shah, a batter, played four IPL seasons for three franchises.

The arrival

Owais Shah's first IPL season was 2010, with Kolkata Knight Riders, a signing made outside the auction.

That first season brought 5 matches and 115 runs.

The peak

The high point with the bat was 2012, for Rajasthan Royals: 340 runs at an average of 37.8, striking at 132.8 in a season when the league as a whole struck at 123.7, with 3 fifties, and a highest score of 76.

Franchise by franchise

2010, Kolkata Knight Riders. 5 matches and 115 runs.

2011, Kochi Tuskers Kerala. Bought at the 2011 auction for ₹90 lakh. 3 matches and 26 runs.

2012 to 2013, Rajasthan Royals. Arrived outside the auction. 15 matches and 365 runs.

3 spells with three franchises in all. The longest was with Rajasthan Royals, 2012 to 2013.

How the runs came

Across the career, Owais Shah struck at 130.1. The league around those same seasons, weighted by how much batting each one involved, struck at 124.2, so Owais Shah scored about 6 runs per hundred balls faster than the typical batter of the time. 54% of the runs came in fours and sixes: 34 fours and 23 sixes.

The fielding record: 7 catches and 1 run-out.

At the auction

Owais Shah went under the hammer twice. The highest price was ₹1.32 cr (US$275k), paid by Delhi Daredevils in 2009. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Delhi Daredevils in 2009.

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

The legacy

Owais Shah made 23 IPL appearances, the last for Rajasthan Royals in 2013.
