Original Content: Captains with the Most Losses Defending 200+ Scores in IPL History

Shreyas Iyer’s captaincy tenure with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) has hit a bump after their recent loss to the Punjab Kings despite posting a mammoth 261 on the board.

This defeat at the home of KKR – Eden Gardens adds Shreyas Iyer’s name to a rather unwanted list – captains who have suffered the most losses while defending 200+ totals in the IPL.

Shreyas Iyer now finds himself tied with Virat Kohli, Sanju Samson, Shikhar Dhawan, and MS Dhoni for having lost two such matches as captain.

Leading the pack with three losses apiece are Faf du Plessis, the RCB captain, who has seen this scenario unfold more often.
