IPL has always produced some memorable innings in all its editions. There have been stroke-filled, brutal, explosive, and breathtaking innings that made IPL the best tournament in the world. Let us have a look at the top 3 innings in the history of the IPL

Brendon McCullum 158* vs RCB, 2008

Everyone recalls Brendon McCullum’s brilliant 158-run innings against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the opening game of the first IPL season in 2008. (RCB). The New Zealander brilliantly began the IPL by blazing his willow throughout the M Chinnaswamy stadium.

In his 73-ball innings, McCullum pounded the RCB bowling attack for 10 fours and 13 sixes. It was a knock that sparkled with beautiful strokeplay that not only assisted KKR to elevate the IPL as a concept in the minds of cricket fans all around the world. McCullum is regarded as one of the league’s top contributors just based on that knock.

Chris Gayle 175* vs PWI, 2013

The incredible 175-run unbeaten innings by West Indies star Chris Gayle during an IPL 2013 match against the subsequently disbanded Pune Warriors (PW) is still vivid in people’s minds because of how dominant it was. Warriors were so severely impacted by the “Gayle storm” that day at the Chinnaswamy that they were never able to recover.

Gayle blasted a staggering 17 maximums during his 66-ball stay, adding to his position as one of T20’s greatest performers and legends, while also hitting 13 fours. That batting performance from the former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) talisman was among his greatest in the IPL.

Virat Kohli 113* vs KXIP, 2016

A spectacular run-filled season and four hundreds later, Kohli was in excellent form. One such exceptional century was against PBKS, who despite having stitches in his hand scored 13 runs in a rain-shortened 15-over encounter.

In that game, when Kohli came out to bat, he went on an incredible hitting performance, scoring 113 runs off just 50 balls, including 12 fours and 8 sixes. Chris Gayle, who batted with him in the opening position, also had a significant impact. He scored a quick-fire 73 off just 32 balls as RCB established an impressive total of 211 for three in their 20 overs. With his brutal knock, the match prediction was fully in favor of the RCB.
