Top 8 strongest throwing arms in IPL history
Let’s recall some fielders who stunned their opponents by using their strong arms and performing direct-hit run-outs.
3. Glenn Maxwell
Glenn Maxwell has won a lot of matches for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) since 2021. Utilising his all-round skills, he has delivered impactful numbers to the team with his bat. In 2022, the Aussie looked decent as a batter, racking up 301 runs in 13 matches at a brilliant strike rate of 169.10.
During the season, the Australian player looked stunning as a fielder as well. His athletic grabs at the slip to dismiss Lucknow Super Giants’ (LSG) Quinton de Kock and Gujarat Titans’ (GT) Shubman Gill grabbed a lot of eyeballs. Besides that, his fielding exploits against Mumbai Indians (MI) also caught a lot of attention.
In the crucial game against the quality side, RCB registered a convincing seven-wicket win and Maxwell contributed with eight runs and a run-out performed against Tilak Varma. On the fifth delivery of the 10th over, Maxwell ran out nervous Varma on a duck with his direct hit. The dismissal became more special as the veteran Aussie covered a long way to send the young MI batter back to the pavilion.
