Harshal Patel has been active in the cash-rich league since 2012. The right-arm medium bowler played his debut season in Royal Challengers Bangalore jersey and took nine wickets in 12 matches at an economy of 8.29. Till 2017, Harshal remained a part of RCB but from 2018-20, he represented Delhi Capitals (DC).

The pacer returned to RCB in 2021, and this time, he looked ferocious with the ball and became the Purple Cap winner with 32 wickets in 15 matches at an economy of 8.14. Riding on some of his incredible match-winning performances in the competition, Challengers qualified for the Playoffs.

In 2023, he dismissed Mark Wood and as a result, he became the fastest Indian to clinch 100 wickets in the league, reaching the milestone in just 79 innings. Along with this, the 32-year-old is also the second-fastest bowler to grab 100 wickets in the tournament, following Lasith Malinga, who got to the record in just 70 innings. Thus far, Harshal has bagged 104 wickets in 84 matches at an economy of 8.53.
