So dear Cricket lovers are you so curious to know the updates happening in and around ICC World Cup 2019 which is gonna happen in England & Wales.

If so, yes! Here it is the post match summary of the 1st Match out off 48 in the ICC WC 2019.

The 1st match was played between the host England and South Africa at Oval on 30th May, 2019. It was lucky that the toss was won by the South African Captain Faf du Plessis who made the strong World Cup favourites team England to bat 1st.

Highest score secured by a team in IPL!



It is absolutely true that, the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) holds both the records, the highest score secured by a team of making 263 runs at the same time the lowest ever in IPL history which just 49. 

Virat’s team was put to bat 1st by the Pune Warriors India (PWI), smashed all over the Chinnaswamy stadium which made the RCB die heart fans to cheer all around with pure energy. While the opening star, the big man Christopher Henry Gayle destructed the cricket ball all over stadium by attaining 175 runs in just 66 deliveries. In that match Gayle had registered the fastest century (100) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) history of just 30 balls till date. 

His 175 runs innings includes 17 sixes which became the record of maximum no of sixes secured in an innings by an individual and 13 fours which also stands there in the 1st of maximum no of boundaries till date. 

In the end RCB’s mammoth total was supported by AB de Villiers quick 31 of just 8 balls. Expect Bhuvneshwar Kumar who has got the best economic spell of 5.75 economy, where as all the other bowlers gave 10 plus bowling economy.


In reply the Pune Warriors India (PWI), had a good start under Aaron Finch’s Captaincy. PWI could not convert much runs where the team has secured just 133 odd runs for the loss of 9 wickets in total, Steven Smith scored the maximum no of runs in the 2nd innings 41 off 31 balls.

Almost all the bowlers bowled well, which crazily includes Chris Gayle’s 2 over for 5 runs along with Unadkat’s and Ravi Rampaul picking 2 wickets each. Thus the memorable event was happened on 23rd of April 2013 at Bangalore Chinnaswamy stadium against the PWI (Pune Warriors India).

The top 10 longest sixes in IPL

Yes you might be but, you have a confusion in viewing various sites. So our team had gone through a deep research on it and here are the top 10 longest sixes that had gone distance till date.

No.10 Travis Head - 109m 

It’s the Aussie south-paw middle order Travis Michael Head who hits a 109 metres six for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in 2017 at RCB’s home ground Chinnaswamy stadium.


No.9 Chris Gayle and AB de Villiers - 111m 

The “Universe Boss” Christopher Henry Gayle must obviously be in the list as he hits the  maximum distant six for RCB against Pune Warriors India (PWI) in 2012. 

Not only the “Universe Boss” here joins “Mr.360” who is none other than the worlds most lovable batsman from Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) Mr.Ab de Villiers who middles for maximum of 111 metres in 2105 when, his South African teammate Imran Tahir represented for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) delivered to de Villiers which got smashed towards the mid wicket region at Chinnaswamy.



No.8 MS Dhoni and Chris Gayle - 112m

The “Captain cool” Mahendra Singh Dhoni should be in the hit list who brilliantly leads the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) team. It’s from the Lion’s den Mahi hits a 112 metres maximum against the Mumbai Indians (MI) when the New Zealand bowler James Franklin delivered a full length ball in 2012. 

If Chris Gayle has the licence to go for the maximum why must he be only once in the top 10 list but this time it’s versus the Pune Warriors India (PWI). 

No.7 Rohit Sharma - 115m 

Though, the Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma had some excellent IPL records in his career in Indian Premier League (IPL) he began all the way from Hyderabad Deccan Chargers (DC) which is now Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). The Indian ODI vice captain is in the 7th place of clearing a 115 metres maximum in 2009 against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) when Mashrafe Mortaza delivered the pace ball. 

No.6 Gautam Gambhir and Ben Cutting - 117m

Gautam Gambhir when he was as the KKR skipper came down the track to hit a 117 metres maximum when Sree Santh delivers with full effort. 

Not only Gauti is in the 6th position it’s the Australian all-rounder Benjamin Collin James Cutting who represented for SRH when, his Australian senior Shane Watson who played for RCB bowls a waist level full toss in the 9th season of the IPL grand finale 2016 at the all famous Chinnaswamy stadium.

  
No.5 Yuvraj Singh , Ross Taylor and Chris Gayle - 119m
  
The Punjabi Prince Yuvraj Singh an expected player in the list was anticipated from those 6 consecutive sixes in an over at Kingsmead, on the inaugural T20 WC tournament 2007 against England. Yuvi who played for his home team Kings XI Punjab smashed a full length delivery from CSK’s Albie Morkel towards the mid wicket area in the 2nd season of IPL, 2009. 

The New Zealand star batsman Ross Taylor joins the club as he smashed for team RCB when his New Zealand team mate Jacob Oram of CSK delivered in the 1st season of IPL, 2008 at Bengaluru. 

The “Universe Boss” Christopher Henry Gayle finally made his longest six of 119 metres which is his best in IPL till date against the Pune Warriors India (PWI). It was a juicy full toss bowled by PWI’s Ali Murtaza.

No.3 Adam Gilchrist - 122m

No.2 Praveen Kumar - 124m 
  
This name must be surprising and shocked to many of the cricket followers who is none other than the tail ender Praveen Kumar. Yes, the Indian swing bowler Praveen who represented for Kings XI Punjab 

No.1 Albie Morkel - 125m

When Pragya Ojha from Hyderabad Deccan Chargers (DC) now changed as Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) bowled to the Chennai Super Kings finest overseas pick Albie   Morkel during that period had made a milestone of hitting 125 metres distance long which still can not be broken. This was happened at M.A.Chidambaram cricket stadium Chepauk, Chennai.
