Aces three-peat WNBA BPI tabs Las Vegas as early favorite

262 The target Punjab Kings chased down against KKR at Eden Gardens - it is the world record for the highest successful chase in T20 cricket. The Kings smashed the record for the highest chase in the IPL by a whopping 38 runs.

24 Sixes the Kings hit in their chase against KKR, the second most by a team in a T20 after Nepal's 26 sixes against Mongolia last year. Kings' 24 sixes are the most by a team in an IPL match, breaking SRH's record of 22 sixes last week against RCB and Delhi Capitals.

4 Openers with fifty-plus scores in the match between KKR and Punjab: Phil Salt (75), Sunil Narine (71), Prabhsimran Singh (54) and Jonny Bairstow (108*). It is the first instance of all four openers scoring 50-plus in in an IPL match and the eleventh occasion in men's T20s. The 308 runs scored by the openers is also the highest in an IPL match.
