5 records in IPL 2016 which will take some beating

#1 Highest number of runs chased down successfully in the last over

MS Dhoni hit two sixes of the last two balls to pull off an amazing win

23 runs required in the last over and the chasing team managed to achieve that! Well, this is one outrageous feat which took place in the game between the two bottom-placed teams Rising Pune Supergiants and Kings Xi Punjab. One of the best finishers of the modern game, Pune skipper MS Dhoni pummeled 23 runs in the last over bowled by Axar Patel re-write cricket history as we know it.

Pune needed a daunting 23 runs to win in the last over and Dhoni entirely took it on him as he miraculously hit the last two balls for massive sixes to knock off the 12 runs required off the last two balls.

In IPL history, there have been two instances when more than 23 runs were scored in the last over. However, in both those cases, the chasing team required 21 runs to score in the last over and they managed to score 24 and 26. Deccan Chargers and Royal Challengers Bangalore did that in 2009 and 2012 respectively.

However to score the required 23 runs in the last over will surely take some beating. Take a bow, MS Dhoni.
