The so-called weakest team of the first edition of IPL "Rajasthan Royals" surprised everyone by winning the maiden IPL title. The main strength of the team lied in the bowling department as the bowlers were the Key to success for them.

Surprisingly the Pakistani fast bowler Sohail Tanvir, who was also the purple cap holder in the inaugural edition in the match stood out for this team.

In a fiery spell aginst CSK in Jaipur, he grabbed six wickets giving away just 14 runs. That spell is still a record and still untouched. Though Adam zampa, the RPS leg spinner came quite close to the record just three days ago but could not break Tanvir's record. Zampa's match figures were 6/19.

Anil Kumble’s too came close to the record as he recorded the figures of 5/5 for RCB against Rajasthan Royals in 2009 but was deprived of one more wicket which kept him away from achieving the record.
