The mega cricket carnival Indian Premier League (IPL) has acted as a source of joy and excitement for its fans over the years. This excitement reaches the next level when the match goes to the last ball. The fans sense an adrenaline rush when both teams end up with the same total and the result is decided with a Super Over. This is the reason why neutral fans hope for a tie in the final over in case of close matches.
In this article, we will list out all the tied matches which have happened in the IPL history whose results were decided with a Super Over. The first-ever Super Over happened in the 2009 season when the match between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) resulted in a tie. Both the teams had scored 150 runs in their innings in their respective 20 overs.
During the Super Over, KKR scored 15 runs with Chris Gayle hitting three fours. For RR, Yusuf Pathan smashed the required 16 runs in only four balls against Ajantha Mendis to help the team win the game. In the next season, Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) played a Super Over as they ended up with the same total of 136 runs. PBKS won the match in the Super Over chasing the required 10 runs in four balls against the legendary Muttiah Muralitharan.
For the 2011 and 2012 seasons, there were no tied matches, however, in 2013, the results of two matches were decided in Super Overs. In the 21st match in 2013, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) scored 152/7 in a chase of 153 runs against Delhi Capitals (DC). RCB needed to chase 12 runs in six balls, and Chris Gayle along with AB de Villiers, went out to bat. Only three runs were scored on the first four balls, but AB de Villiers hit consecutive sixes on the last two to win an electrifying game for his team.
In the same season, RCB again played a Super Over against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in a tied match. However, this time they lost as they failed to chase the required 20 runs in six balls. In IPL 2014, RR won the super over against KKR courtesy of some sensational batting by Steve Smith. After a gap of two years, a Super Over occurred in IPL 2017 with the now-defunct Gujarat Lions (GL) and Mumbai Indians (MI).
MI won the game due to the sheer bowling genius of Jasprit Bumrah in the Super Over. In IPL 2019, DC won the game in the Super Over against KKR as Kagiso Rabada displayed his bowling prowess in the end. Later, MI won the tied match in the Super Over against SRH in the same season.
The IPL 2020 season was the most exciting in terms of close matches as the results of four matches were decided in Super Overs. In fact, the game between Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings saw two Super overs with Punjab clinching yet another thrilling win.
