Its not just about how much you score, but also how quickly you score. That is the nature of the T20 format. Modern day cricketers have made it look easy to score quick runs, and they are not just playing cameos, they are converting those runs into half-centuries and centuries. Here are the players with fastest half-centuries in the IPL.
KL Rahul against DC (14 balls) is the fastest half-century. Yusuf Pathan is at no. 2, against SRH (15 balls). Sunil Narine is at no. 3, against RCB ( 15 balls).
Here is the full list of players with fastest half-centuries.
