T20 cricket has changed. (More Cricket News)
Sky is the limit in T20 cricket now and in the Indian Premier League 2024 we are witnessing that change.
Sunrisers Hyderabad on Monday scored the highest-ever IPL total when they smashed the Royal Challengers Bengaluru bowlers for 287 runs in the 20 overs at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium. 287! The kind of scores that were once considered safe in One Day cricket are now being breached in 20 overs.
That the SRH broke their own record of the highest total made just weeks ago was crazy, but even crazier was the fact that they won by just 25 runs.
In reply to the record total, RCB themselves batted to their fullest and ended up with 262/7.
It was some of the craziest hitting that cricket world has ever seen. As the ball sailed high in the Bengaluru sky, many records fell flat on Monday.
Here is a list of the records that were made during the match where one team scored the highest ever IPL total and the other the fifth highest.
