***Official*** Indian Premier League 2018

Gayle has won IPL man of the match 51 times

That's pretty hard to comprehend

Also I have a feeling that if D'arcy Short gets significant international exposure, he's going to make Usman Khawaja look like a spin-playing master in comparison.

Wikipedia says he has won 18 and this random reddit thread from yesterday has him at 19. Where did the 51 number come from?

It would make sense if it was wrong tbh, was pretty hard to believe

exact wording was "earning Player-of-the-Match honours for an IPL-record 51st time"

just bad reporting I guess, my fault for perpetuating. Sorry ****s

In the space of 33 balls against Chennai, he turned back the clock spectacularly, blasting 63 from the top of the order, including seven boundaries and four mammoth sixes, earning Player-of-the-Match honours for an IPL-record 51st time.

Typical TJB, not digging through the archives.

Lol, you kid.

It's hard to comprehend because it's wrong. 5 hundreds & 22 fitties in 109 IPL games, so no chance of 51 MOTMs.

Sunrisers could win, even without Warner. That bowling attack is awesome.

Lol Unmukt Chand has 3 T20 centuries! When did that happen?

Also, was he up for auction this season?

ftr if you ever see a stat on cricket.com.au you can pretty safely assume it's wrong.

Russel has now hit more sixes than fours in T20s lol. Don't think anyone else who's played a significant amount of games can claim that one.
