A great batter will occasionally rise to the plate so swiftly that the opposition has no hope of halting the assault of runs. An overview of the topic is given in this article.

The Quickest Fifty in IPL History:

KL Rahul holds the record for the fewest balls needed to score 50 runs. To get to his half-century against Delhi in the IPL 2018 encounter, he needed 14 balls. Rahul blasted six fours and four sixes while scoring 51 runs off 16 balls in this inning. The Punjab squad defeated the opposition by 6 wickets after scoring 171 runs in 18.5 overs. Karun Nair scored 50 runs off only 33 balls, including 5 fours and 2 sixes, to help his team win.

Yusuf Pathan and Sunil Narine’s previous IPL record for the quickest fifty was broken by Rahul. Yusuf Pathan delivered one of the most incredible T20 performances during the IPL 2014 campaign. For Kolkata Knight Riders to climb to second place in the points rankings and earn two chances to advance to the final, they needed to score 161 runs in 15.2 overs. Yusuf scored 72 runs overall off 22 balls, getting to 50 runs in just 15 balls while batting. Yusuf Ali’s relentless striking allowed KKR to win and move to second position in just 14.2 overs.

Chris Lynn and Sunil Narine decimated the RCB bowling attack in the IPL 2017 encounter. In just six overs, they scored a total of 100 runs together. When Narine reached his half-century in just 15 balls, he tied for the fastest half-century of that era. In 15.1 overs, KKR successfully chased down the necessary target and won by a margin of 6 wickets.

Raina’s IPL 2014 qualifying innings are the best non-hundred IPL innings of all time. To make it to the championship game, CSK needed to score 227 runs. As CSK scored 100 runs while KXIP was on the powerplay, KXIP found themselves in trouble. Raina scored 87 of these 100 runs. As a result, his team’s hopes were dashed on the first ball of the seventh over. To get 50, Raina needed 16 balls. He scored a total of 12 fours and 6 sixes. To get to 202/7, CSK needed 20 overs. In defeating CSK, 24 runs.

Eight players are tied for fifth position on the list of the fifty fastest players. All eight players reached their fifty in 17 balls. Chris Gayle scored 175 runs off 66 balls against Pune Warriors in the IPL 2013 for the highest total. The roster includes Adam Gilchrist, Nicholas Pooran, Chris Morris, and Sunil Narine, in addition to Pandya, Kishan, and Pollard.
