All records have been shattered with the 53rd ‘double century’ in IPL 2026. This double century was seen in the match between Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore in Dharamshala. RCB did wonders by batting aggressively. With this, a unique record was also established in the history of the Indian Premier League.
The thing is actually such that in the current season of IPL, the figure of 200+ runs was crossed for the 53rd time. RCB, who came to bat first in the match, put 222 runs on the board for 4 wickets in 20 overs.
Last season’s record broken
Last season’s record was broken with a total of more than 200 runs for the 53rd time. In the 2025 IPL, a total of 200 plus was seen 52 times. Now this feat has happened 53 times in 2026, making this season the season with the highest total of 200+. The thing to note is that there are still many matches left in the season. Therefore the figure may go further.
Highest total of 200+ in an IPL season
- In 2026- 53* times
- In 2025 – 52 times
- In 2024 – 41 times
- In 2023 – 37 times
- In 2022 – 18 times
Total of 300 runs left to be made in IPL match
Let us tell you that the score of more than 200 runs has been made many times in IPL, but the total of 300 runs is still to be made. Currently, the biggest total of the tournament is 287/3 runs, which was made by Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2024. Now it will be interesting to see when the 300-run mark is reached in the tournament. The thing to note is that the mark of 300 runs has been crossed many times in T20 International cricket.
If we talk about the biggest successful run chase of IPL, then this record is recorded in the name of Punjab Kings. In the same season, Punjab had won the match against Delhi Capitals by scoring 265/4 runs. The second name in the list also appears to be from Punjab. The team won against Kolkata Knight Riders in 2024 by chasing 262/2 runs.
