The Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2024 will see bowlers come to terms with their impotence as they were unable to stop batsmen from playing like kingpins. This indication is rather apparent that we are living in the greatest-ever IPL period in terms of the quantity of sixes scored in an innings.
In the match held at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, Sunrisers Hyderabad vs. Royal Challengers Bangalore, the earlier standards were surpassed and required by SRH. In a 2023 one-off encounter, South Africa and the West Indies jointly delivered a record-breaking 81 boundaries event in which 81 boundaries strikes were made.
Both of these sides accomplished equally remarkable goals in this match. Batting first, SRH surpassed their previous highest total of 287 runs to create their own record in IPL history. They achieved the greatest successful chase for a losing side in T20I matches, finishing at 262-4.
The Gujarat Lions ultimately prevailed, but the game's compelling story was told by the aggressive hitting performances. The ball was readily sent and received by the players on the field, piqueing the viewers' attention.
This incredible unblemished record illustrates how exciting T20 cricket will always be. Cricket fans should anticipate seeing more fours and sixes in the game as a result of bigger and stronger bats, decreasing boundaries, and powerful strokes becoming the norm in the remaining T20 league.
