Klaasen left Virat Kohli behind
New Delhi. South African wicketkeeper batsman Heinrich Klaasen is playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL. Klaasen batted brilliantly against Mumbai Indians in the 8th league match of IPL. On the basis of his excellent innings, Hyderabad made the biggest score of IPL. Hyderabad, playing on its home ground, won this match by 31 runs. Klaasen has reached number one in the list of batsmen who have scored the most runs in IPL 2024. He has snatched the orange cap from Virat Kohli while the foreign bowler has the power to bowl.
Heinrich Klassen scored unbeaten 80 runs in 34 balls with the help of 4 fours and 7 sixes. During this period his strike rate was 235.29. On the basis of this inning, Klaasen has reached the top in the list of batsmen scoring most runs in the current IPL. Klaasen has scored 143 runs in 2 matches. Whereas former RCB captain Virat Kohli has 98 runs in 2 matches and has slipped to second position. Sunrisers Hyderabad batsman Abhishek Sharma is at third place in this list. Abhishek has scored 95 runs in 2 matches. Tilak Verma is at fourth position with 89 runs while Sam Curran is at fifth position with 86 runs.
When the entire team is at a strike rate of 200… the captain cannot do this, Irfan Pathan raised questions on Hardik Pandya’s attitude.
He blew his whistle in the World Cup… made a shameful record in the debut match of IPL, who is the 17 year old bowler on whom the batsmen attacked?
Mustafizur number one in bowling
Talking about bowlers, Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman, playing for Chennai Super Kings, is at number one. Mustafizur remains on top in the list of bowlers taking the most wickets with 6 wickets in 2 matches, while 11 bowlers have the same 3 wickets, but due to better economy rate, Harpreet Brar of Punjab Kings is at second place. Sunrisers Hyderabad’s fast bowler Team Natarajan is at third place, Harshit Rana of Kolkata Knight Riders is at fourth place and Mumbai Indians’ Jasprit Bumrah is at fifth place.
CSK remains at number one
Current champion Chennai Super Kings is at first place in the points table with 4 points after winning 2 consecutive matches, while 6 teams have equal 2 points but on the basis of better run rate, Rajasthan Royals is at second place while Sunrisers Hyderabad is at third place. Kolkata Knight Riders are at fourth and Punjab Kings at 5th.
