Tristan Stubbs
On scorecards: T Stubbs · Right-hand bat
Tristan Stubbs, a wicketkeeper-batter, has played five IPL seasons for two franchises.
The arrival
Tristan Stubbs's first IPL season was 2022, with Mumbai Indians, a signing made outside the auction.
That first season brought 2 matches and 2 runs. The best was still to come.
The peak
The high point with the bat was 2024, for Delhi Capitals: 378 runs at an average of 54.0, striking at 190.9 in a season when the league as a whole struck at 150.6, with 3 fifties, and a highest score of 71 not out.
Franchise by franchise
2022 to 2023, Mumbai Indians. 4 matches, 27 runs and 1 wicket.
2024 to 2026, Delhi Capitals. Bought at the 2024 auction for ₹50 lakh. 43 matches, 959 runs and 3 wickets.
2 spells with two franchises in all. The longest was with Delhi Capitals, 2024 to 2026.
How the runs came
Across the career, Tristan Stubbs has struck at 151.9. The league around those same seasons, weighted by how much batting each one involved, struck at 152.7, so the scoring rate has tracked the league's almost exactly. 57% of the runs came in fours and sixes: 69 fours and 47 sixes.
The ball-by-ball record adds the detail. 24.8% of the balls Tristan Stubbs faced were dot balls, a lower share than 99% of the 140 batters who have faced 500 balls or more in the IPL. A six came every 13.8 balls, and a four every 9.4.
The fielding record: 24 catches, 1 run-out and 1 stumping.
At the auction
Tristan Stubbs has gone under the hammer once. The price was ₹50 lakh, paid by Delhi Capitals in 2024.
Seasons without an auction entry were played under a retention, a trade or a signing made outside the auction.
Where it stands
Tristan Stubbs has made 47 IPL appearances, the latest for Delhi Capitals in 2026, and has won 1 player-of-the-match award.
