BENGALURU, India (AP) — Sunrisers Hyderabad racked a record Indian Premier League total of 287-3 and beat Royal Challengers Bengaluru by only 25 runs on Monday.
Travis Head’s 102, the fourth fastest century in IPL history off 39 balls, propelled Hyderabad to better its own IPL record of 277-3 set this season against Mumbai Indians.
Bengaluru looked like it was crashing to a heavy defeat at 181-6 in the 15th over until Dinesh Karthik plundered 83 off 35 balls to finish on 262-7 and narrow their defeat.
The aggregate of 549 runs was easily the highest in IPL history.
Head’s blistering century included eight sixes and nine fours. The Australian left-hander pounded the fast bowlers, notably Lockie Ferguson (2-52), who had a forgetful first game of the season as Bengaluru’s ploy not to go with a specialist spinner backfired.
Head raised his half-century off 20 balls and completed his century off the next 19 balls. Head attempted another big shot off Ferguson and holed out to Faf du Plessis at mid-off.
