List of batters with highest individual score in a single innings in IPL from 2008 to 2025
Though it is not so common to see a player hitting a ton in the 20-over format, some cricketers have enjoyed big innings when it's their day.
The Indian Premier League has long been a platform where batters reinvented the limits of scoring in T20 cricket. Despite the format allowing only 120 balls per inning, several players have displayed their ability to hammer huge amounts of runs at high rates.
From the very first season, when Brendon McCullum’s iconic 158 to Chris Gayle’s record-breaking 175 in 2013, batters have consistently delivered unbelievable performances. These innings are not just about personal milestones but how have batters evolved in the shortest format of the game. Players today anchor their innings through power-hitting, timing, and innovative way of scoring runs against the best bowling attacks.
The IPL has also seen players regularly crossing the three-figure mark, something once considered rare in the shortest format. Batters like Quinton de Kock, AB de Villiers, and KL Rahul have shown their ability to accelerate and showcase their dominance over bowlers, ensuring that massive individual scores remain a regular feature of the tournament. What makes these high individual scores even more fascinating is their impact on teams. More often than not, such innings set up huge totals or successful chases, influencing the outcome of matches in a big way.
