Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper David Warner has been one of the most consistent batsman in IPL history. He is also the only batsman to be a three-time Orange Cap winner in the IPL. The Orange cap is given to the batsman who scores the most runs in the season.
Just last year, David Warner captured his third orange cap as he scored 692 runs in 12 matches at an amazing average of 69.20 with a strike-rate of 143.86.
That’s the kind of consistency he has brought along in his game, and it is based on that that Sunrisers Hyderabad won their only IPL title in 2016 as well.
On Thursday, as David Warner hit another 50+ score against the Kings XI Punjab, his 9th consecutive against the team – which is another record that Warner has in his name – he also became the first batsman in IPL to cross fifty 50+ scores.
David Warner achieved this feat in just 132 innings, which also shows the consistency of his conversion to a 50+ score.
The batsman who comes next is Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Virat Kohli who has 42 scores of 50+ in 174 innings.
Chennai Super Kings batsman Suresh Raina and Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma are tied for the third position with 39 scores of 50+ in 189 innings each.
RCB ‘superman’ AB de Villiers comes in next with 38 scores of 50+ in 147 innings.
