The first week of the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league" title=" Indian Premier League 2023 " target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL 2023 </a>concluded with match 9 between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Eden Gardens. After week 1, the defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT) are ruling the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-points-table/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL 2023&nbsp;points table</a> with four points in two matches, beating Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Delhi Capitals (DC).

Following the 2022 title winners, the Shikhar Dhawan-led Punjab Kings (PBKS) are holding the second position with two victories from their couple of appearances.

The opening week saw some phenomenal bowling performances from some renowned names. Riding on their extraordinary bowling shows, their teams tasted success in matches. In the upcoming weeks, their teams will expect them to continue their form and take their teams to the Playoff round.&nbsp;

Here are five fabulous bowling performances from week 1 of the cash-rich league:

5. Nathan Ellis’s 4/30 vs Rajasthan Royals (RR)

After winning their first game against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Punjab Kings (PBKS) were looking to take the momentum forward against Rajasthan Royals at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium. Winning the toss, Royals invited the visitors to bat first.

With the amazing batting efforts of their openers Shikhar Dhawan and Prabhsimran Singh Punjab posted 197/4 on the board.

Defending the total, Punjab got an amazing start from Arshdeep Singh as he dismissed RR openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ravichandran Ashwin in their first four overs. Making the matter worse for the hosts, Nathan Ellis removed the dangerous Jos Buttler from the crease while Buttler was still batting on 19 (11).

With the fall of three early wickets, captain Sanju Samson strived to stabilised the RR innings but Ellis, who was in a great rhythm that evening, got the better of Samson 42(25). Before ending his magnificent spell, he strengthened his team’s position by claiming the scalps of Riyan Parag and Devdutt Padikkal.&nbsp;

4. Moeen Ali’s 4/26 vs Lucknow Super Giants (LSG)

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) returned to their home venue Chepauk after almost four years. Hosting the KL Rahul-led Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), CSK batters put up an all round show and helped their team win the contest. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway played a crucial role in revitalising the team and propelled the side to 217.

Following the massive total, LSG got a positive start due to the fierce batting style of Kyle Mayers. However, his beautiful knock came to an end after scoring 53 runs off 22 deliveries. The left-handed batter got trapped by Moeen Ali, who got him caught at the hands of Devon Conway.

Emboldened by Mayer’s scalp, the off-spinner picked the LSG skipper Rahul and Krunal Pandya as well in his second and third over respectively. On the second delivery of his last over, the veteran hunted Marcus Stoinis down and ended the partnership between the Aussie and Nicholas Pooran to take the team over the line.

3. Yuzvendra Chahal’s 4/17 vs Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)

At the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) locked horns with each other in match no. 4. Continuing his previous year’s form, Jos Buttler kicked off his innings in an explosive manner. Along with the veteran, Yashasvi Jaiswal and skipper Sanju Samson also looked impactful.

With their aggressive batting attitude, Royals amassed 203/5 in 20 overs. Pursuing the colossal total, SRH were banking on Mayank Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Harry Brook, and Glenn Phillips to shine with their bats. However, the Orange Army struggled from the beginning of their innings as Trent Boult wreaked havoc with his pace to dismiss Abhishek Sharma and Tripathi.

Taking his last year’s form ahead in this season, Chahal also took Harry Brook on the last delivery of his first over. After picking up the England batter, he continued his attacking bowling and got Mayank Agarwal’s wicket. The 32-year-old powered his team to a comprehensive 72-run victory with his 4-0-17-4 figures.

2. Varun Chakravarthy’s 4/15 vs Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)

(Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

After a gap of nearly three years, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) celebrated their homecoming by vanquishing Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by 81 runs. Faf du Plessis, the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain, emerged as the winner of the coin flip and elected to field first.

RCB bowlers demolished KKR’s top order and brought joy to the faces of their supporters. However, the 42-run partnership between Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Rinku Singh and a spectacular 68-run knock off just 29 deliveries from Shardul Thakur turned the tables, and Knight Riders ended their innings at 204/7.

While defending the total, Knight Riders struggled against RCB openers Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis, but with the former’s dismissal at the hands of Sunil Narine, KKR bowlers got a chance to dominate the visitors.

Varun Chakravarthy, who picked up 4/15 with the ball, played an essential role in his team’s one-sided win. The mystery spinner claimed RCB’s key batters Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell in his praiseworthy bowling spell of 3.4 overs. &nbsp;

1. Mark Wood’s 5/14 vs Delhi Capitals (DC)

Beginning their IPL 2023 campaign at home, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) got a terrific start against Delhi Capitals (DC). At the Ekana Cricket Stadium, DC skipper David Warner won the toss and chose to field first. Kyle Mayers and Nicholas Pooran chipped in with their sensational knocks of 73 (38) and 36 (21) and helped Super Giants to assemble 193 runs in the end for the loss of six wickets.

Emboldened by their batting performance, LSG exuded confidence in their bowling as well. Mark Wood, who made the debut for the franchise, bowled with confidence and wrecked DC’s star-studded batting unit. Bowling his first over, he snared the scalps of Prithvi Shaw and Mitchell Marsh on back-to-back deliveries.&nbsp;

After clinching both wickets, he got more aggressive and fetched a fifer with the wickets of Sarfaraz Khan, Axar Patel, and Chetan Sakariya. The 33-year-old’s disciplined bowling forced Capitals to surrender in front of Super Giants, scoring only 143/9 in their reply. For his marvellous bowling figures, Wood also got the Player of the Match award.
