Original Content: IPL Teams With an Unbeatable Record Defending 200-Plus Runs

On the cricket field, there’s nothing quite like the rush of scoring big when batting first. However, it comes with a challenge: defending that total in the second innings. While some teams crumble, others prove their worth by holding their ground.

In the IPL, one of the toughest T20 cricket leagues in the world, this challenge takes on a different dimension. While many teams have posted totals of 200 or more, only a select few have managed to turn those scores into guaranteed victories.

In this article, we look at the IPL franchises with an unbeaten record when defending a target of 200 runs or more:

Mumbai Indians (MI)

The five-time champions are sitting at the top of this list with 14 wins from as many matches where they have defended a 200+ score. This 100 percent winning record while defending 200-plus targets is a testament to their exceptional bowling attacks over the years.

Delhi Capitals (DC)

With their recent thrilling defense of 225 runs against the Gujarat Titans, Delhi Capitals join the elite club. They have now successfully defended 10 out of 10 instances when they have put up a score of 200 or more.

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG)

The new kid on the block, Lucknow Super Giants, has made a strong case for their bowling prowess. They have a perfect record so far, having successfully defended both times they have crossed the 200-run mark.
