Talking Points

Last season, Yashasvi Jaiswal hammered the fastest-ever fifty in IPL history. The southpaw batter took a mere 13 balls to bring up his 50. So you can expect some fiery knocks from Jaiswal in IPL 2024.

The likes of Nicholas Pooran, Hardik Pandya, and Ishan Kishan have a knack for scoring runs at a faster pace. That might result in them crushing the opponent’s bowling attack, squeezing out maximum runs off fewer balls.
