Rajat Patidar

The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) have also been known for their explosive batting lineup in the IPL, and what’s more exciting than a batter, taking the attack to the bowlers from the get-go.

In this article, we look at the players who have blazed their way to the fastest fifties for RCB in IPL history:

1. Chris Gayle (17 balls)

    The legendary Chris Gayle holds the record for the fastest fifty by an RCB batter. Back in 2013, he sent shivers down the spines of Pune Warriors India bowlers with a brutal knock, reaching his half-century in just 17 balls.

    2. Rajat Patidar (19 balls)

    On April 25th, at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Rajat Patidar smashed a whirlwind 19-ball fifty against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. It is now the joint second fastest fifty for RCB in IPL history.

    3. Robin Uthappa (19 balls)

    The former RCB batter Robin Uthappa joins Rajat Patidar at the number 2 spot. Back in 2010, Uthappa unleashed his inner beast, scoring a blazing 19-ball fifty against Kings XI Punjab [now Punjab Kings].
