Wednesday night in Hyderabad belonged to the batters, as SRH posted the highest total in IPL history. Here’s a look at the full list of records broken during the SRH vs MI match.
SRH posted 277/3 in 20 overs, which is now the highest team total in IPL history. They broke the previous record of 263/5 set by RCB back in 2013. This is the fourth-highest total in all T20s.
The Sunrisers sprinted to 81/1 in 6 overs, which is their highest total in Powerplay. Their previous best was 79/0 against KKR in Hyderabad.
Abhishek Sharma’s 16-ball half-century is the quickest for any SRH batter in IPL history. He broke the 18-ball fifty record set by Travis Head minutes before in the innings.
MI made 246/5 in their unsuccessful chase of 278. However, the match aggregate of 523 runs is now the highest in T20 history.
Sunrisers were 148/2 after their 10 overs, which is now the most by any team at this stage in IPL. They overtook the previous tally of 131/3 set by MI in 2021 against them.
SRH collected 18 sixes in their innings, while MI bettered that by hitting 20 sixes in their chase. They combined for 38 sixes, which is the most in any IPL match.
MI gave debut opportunity to 17-year-old South African pacer Kwena Maphaka. He conceded 66 runs in his 4 overs, which is the most expensive spell by a debutant in an IPL match. He overtook the previous record of 62 runs set by Michael Neser for KXIP in 2013.
