Travis Head, playing his first IPL 2024 game, blasted a 24-ball 62, while Abhishek Sharma slammed 63 off 23 to lay the foundation. Abhishek pipped Head to became hit fastest half-century for Sunrisers Hyderabad. While Head took 19 balls to reach the milestone, Abhishek reached in just 16 balls.
Heinrich Klassen (80) and Aiden Markram (42) provided the late charge to take the hosts past the 250-mark.
The previous highest total was 263 for five, achieved by RCB back in 2013.
It was a nightmare for the MI bowlers as all of them, barring Jasprit Bumrah (0/36), ended up leaking more than 10 runs per over.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru 263/5 in 2013
The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) hold the record for the highest team total in the history of the IPL. They scored 263/5 in 2013 against the Pune Warriors India (PWI). It was the same match in which Gayle scored an unbeaten 175 at the MCA Stadium in Pune, which is also the highest individual score in the history of the league. RCB won that match by a huge margin of 130 runs.
Lucknow Super Giants 257/5 in 2023
The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are in the second spot with a team total of 257/5 which they scored in the 2023 edition of the IPL against the Punjab Kings. Playing at home at the Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) Stadium in Mohali, the Kings managed to get to as far as 200, but eventually lost the match by 56 runs.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru 248/3 in 2016
Chennai Super Kings 246/5 in 2010
MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings come in the fourth position as they failed to reach the target of 250. Murali Vijay was at his lethal best in the game as he scored a century and took his team to 246/5 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
Kolkata Knight Riders 245/6 in 2018
Kolkata Knight Riders with their total of 245/6 at the Holkar Stadium in Indore sit at the fifth position in the list of teams with the highest totals in the history of the IPL. Thanks to Sunil Narine’s 75 off just 36 balls and 50 off 23 balls by Dinesh Karthik, KKR reached such a high total.
In reply, Punjab had even then tried chasing the target down. They managed to reach 214/8 and lost the match by 31 runs.
