5 all-time IPL records that are unlikely to be broken

Sohail Tanvir’s six-wicket haul

Sadly, Sohail Tanvir couldn't play more matches in IPL

Sohail Tanvir set the first edition of IPL on fire as he won the purple cap, the award given for the leading wicket-taker in one edition of the IPL and helped his side Rajasthan Royals win the tournament.

In a league game against the Chennai Super Kings at Jaipur, Sohail Tanvir ran through the Super Kings’ batting order and ended up with figures of 6-14, which is the best bowling figures in an IPL match.

Eight seasons have passed and still Tanvir’s record is yet to be broken. No other bowler has managed to take six wickets in an IPL game in the next seven seasons. Sohail Tanvir’s six-wicket haul in IPL is very hard for a bowler to breach and in all likelihood, Tanvir will have his name etched in the history books for a long time.
