On scorecards: SB Jakati · Right-hand bat
Shadab Jakati, a bowler, played seven IPL seasons for three franchises. Two titles came along the way.
The arrival
Shadab Jakati's first IPL season was 2009, with Chennai Super Kings, a signing made outside the auction.
That first season brought 9 matches, 20 runs and 13 wickets at 7.48 an over. It would stay the best season of the career with the ball.
The peak
The best season was 2009, for Chennai Super Kings: 13 wickets at 7.48 runs an over, while the league's bowlers went for 7.28, with best figures of 4 for 22.
Franchise by franchise
2009 to 2012, Chennai Super Kings. 50 matches and 45 wickets; champions in 2010 and 2011.

3 spells with three franchises in all. The longest was with Chennai Super Kings, 2009 to 2012. 2013 and 2015 are missing from the record: seasons without an IPL appearance.

With the ball, 47 wickets in 1,087 deliveries, at 8.01 runs an over against a league rate of 7.69 for the same seasons: 0.32 an over more expensive than the typical bowler of the time. There were two four-wicket hauls, and the best figures were 4 for 22.
31.1% of the balls Shadab Jakati bowled were dots, a lower share than 87% of the 150 bowlers with 500 balls or more; a wicket came every 23.1 balls.
The fielding record: 19 catches and 4 run-outs.
At the auction
Shadab Jakati went under the hammer twice. The highest price was ₹20 lakh, paid by Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2014.
Seasons without an auction entry were played under a retention, a trade or a signing made outside the auction.
The legacy
Shadab Jakati made 59 IPL appearances, the last for Gujarat Lions in 2017, and won 1 player-of-the-match award.
