On a day of absolute carnage and mayhem, the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad witnessed a torrential downpour of sixes and fours, during the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL) match between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians.
Hyderabad scored 277/3, tearing the Mumbai Indians’ bowling unit apart in an operation that saw them destroy old records aplenty, and create new milestones for other teams to chase down. In response, Mumbai put up a staunch fight, scoring 246/5.
Let us have a look at the records that were broken:
Highest Team Total in IPL
The most significant of the many records that were created was that of the highest team total in the history of this competition. The previous highest belonged to Royal Challengers Bangalore, who had scored 263/5 against Pune Warriors India in 2013, in a match where Chris Gayle struck 175 runs.

Fastest 50 for Sunrisers Hyderabad
Fitting the incredible occasion that was this match, the same record was broken twice – that of the fastest fifty for Sunrisers Hyderabad. The record was first broken by Australian opener Travis Head, who struck an 18-ball half-century on his debut for the franchise. However, he could not hold on to the record for long, as Abhishek Sharma did it in 16 deliveries soon after. The previous record was held by David Warner, who had struck a 20-ball fifty for SRH.

Highest Fourth-Wicket Partnership for Sunrisers Hyderabad
Whilst Head and Sharma deserve praise, for scoring a 24-ball 62 and 23-ball 63 respectively, Sunrisers had an excellent end to their innings, courtesy of their two South African batters – Heinrich Klaasen (80 off 34) and Aiden Markram (42 off 28). Together, the pair built a 116-run fourth-wicket stand, which was the highest fourth-wicket partnership in Hyderabad’s history.

In another record that young Kwena Maphaka would not want to remember, the 17-year-old pacer from South Africa recorded the most expensive figures by a Mumbai Indians bowler in this competition.

56 – Abu Nechim Ahmed (vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, 2011)
Youngest Player for Mumbai Indians
Having highlighted Maphaka’s figures, it will be unfair to divert the blame towards him for Mumbai’s poor display with the ball, considering he became the youngest player to represent the five-time champions in IPL.

Kwena Maphaka – 17 years, 353 days
Saurabh Tiwary – 17 years, 117 days

It will only remain as a footnote in this game, following the carnage, albeit former Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma also made a record by becoming the first player to represent the franchise in 200 matches.
Most matches for Mumbai Indians:
Rohit Sharma – 200
Kieron Pollard – 189
Harbhajan Singh – 136
