#3 Highest total
Before 10 years ago, if someone told you that 263 for 5 is a team total in 20 overs then you might not have believed them. Royal Challengers Bangalore scored an unbelievable 263 runs in a match against Pune Warriors India in 2013 IPL. This is not only the highest team total in IPL, but also the highest innings total by any team in a T20 match.
The innings went on the back of a Chris Gayle blitz. The tall Caribbean batsman smashed Pune bowlers to get 175 runs in just 66 balls. Royal Challengers Bangalore won that match by 130 runs.
The second-highest total in the list is also by RCB, for their innings of 248/3 against Gujarat Lions in 2016 IPL. Here is the list of the top 5 totals:
