The 24-year-old Billy Stanlake is known for his sheer pace and deadly bouncers. He is one of the tallest players to ever represent Cricket Australia.

In T20Is, Stanlake has picked up 25 wickets from 17 matches. In this year’s BBL, he has grabbed 11 wickets from 11 matches for Adelaide Strikers.

In IPL, Stanlake has been a part of Royal Challengers Bangalore (2017) and Sunrisers Hyderabad(2018-present). He has played a total of just 6 IPL matches and picked up 7 wickets. In IPL 2018 he only 4 matches before he was ruled out due to a finger injury.

The Sunrisers have one of the best bowling attacks among all the teams in the IPL, and a bowler like Stanlake can trouble the batsmen with his pace and bounce. This edition of IPL is a big opportunity for him to make an impact in the shortest form of the game.
