Jake Fraser-McGurk took IPL 2024 by storm. He has scored two 15-ball half-centuries. The latest was in the match against Mumbai Indians on Saturday.

On April 28, RR wonderkid Vaibhav Suryavanshi hit a 17-ball half-century, the fastest in IPL 2025. He also became the youngest player in the history of the competition to score a fifty.
