Overview

What the figures show

2,839 IPL runs across seven seasons is where Ruturaj Gaikwad's tournament record stands, the first of them in 2020. Ranked by runs, 2021 sits on top with 635 for Chennai Super Kings, and nothing else comes within 45. No IPL innings has beaten the 108 scored in 2024. Fifty has been passed 24 times, two of those going on to hundreds. That works out at 135.6 per hundred balls, near enough the middle of the 182 batters here who have faced 300 IPL deliveries or more. Fours and sixes account for roughly 59% of the total — 260 and 107 of them.

No other IPL side appears against the name: Chennai Super Kings throughout.
