Lowest Powerplay Score in IPL 2024

Gujarat Titans traveled to Bengaluru to take on the home team Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the return fixture. Just a few days back, Will jacks had scored a blistering century to help RCB win their third game of the Indian Premier League 2024 season. 

Faf Du Plessis decided to bowl first as he won the toss and went in with the same team. Joshua Little and Manav Suthar came in for the Titans with the latter playing his first ever game in the IPL. 

Mohammed Siraj struck two huge blows to dent against the Titans. The right-arm pacer dismissed veteran India star Wriddhiman Saha and followed it up with the wicket of Shubman Gill. The wicket of Sai Sudharsan meant that the Titans had lost three early wickets to have a dismal start to the game and record one of the lowest totals in the powerplay overs. 

Here are the top three lowest recorded scores during the powerplay overs 

3. Mumbai Indians – 28/4 vs LSG – Lucknow 

In what has been a dismal season for the Mumbai Indians, the Hardik Pandya led side had a disastrous game with the bat versus Lucknow Super Giants. Mohsin Khan got the wicket of Rohit Sharma who was celebrating his 37th birthday. This was followed by Stoinis dismissing Suryakumar Yadav for 10 while Tilak Varma was out run out for 7. Hardik Pandya was for a 1st ball duck when he edged behind to KL Rahul off Naveen-ul-Haq. 

2. PBKS – 27/3 vs SRH – Mullanpur 

Chasing 183 runs to win, Punjab Kings got off to the most terrible start as they recorded one of the lowest powerplay scores.
