Highest Team Totals in IPL History
When it comes to T20 cricket, there is no safe target. Chasing 9 or 10 runs per over is a regular sight in the IPL, where even 200+ score was easily chased by the IPL franchises. The role of bowlers has shrunk to mere bowling machines used to slog over the head.
The average score of every IPL match is 160+, which also includes robust quality wickets offering swing and seam, other than there are only bowler’s graveyards amid the cricket stadium.
Who can forget the memorable match when CSK chased 240+ target against Kings XI Punjab in 2008. Here is a list of top 10 highest totals in the history of IPL:
