Once again a record featuring Chris Gayle and Royal Challengers Bangalore but this time from a different match gets into the list. In the 2011 edition, Chris Gayle played his first match for the Royal Challengers Bangalore.

In that season against Kochi Tuskers Kerala at the Chinnaswamy stadium, Gayle smashed 36 runs in one over bowled by Prasanth Parameshwaran. Adding to that, the bowler bowled a no-ball and made it 37 opposite to his name.

The first ball was a six followed by another one off a no-ball and the next two was dispatched for fours with the last three balls went for a six, six and a four. Conceding more than 37 runs in an over is very tough to be broken and scoring 36 in one is equally difficult. Either way, this record might stay on forever.
