RCB star batter Jos Buttler equals THIS record of Virat Kohli

Ahmedabad:

Jos Buttler powered Rajasthan Royals to sail into the finals of the ongoing Indian Premier League with an unbeaten century in the chase of 158 runs set by Royal Challengers Bangalore in Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.

Buttler smashed his fourth ton of the season. Earlier, Kohli held the record with four centuries to his name in 2016. In the same year, he scored 973 runs, which is the highest by any player in the history of IPL.

Talking about Buttler, the Englishman has smashed a whopping total of 824 runs, at an average of 58.86, and a strike rate of 151.47 in IPL 2022, so far. He also registered four half-centuries to his name.

Coming to the match, great knocks by Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal, followed by a cameo of Sanju Samson helped RR chase down the target of 158 runs in just 18.1 overs. Earlier, Prasidh Krishna and Obed McCoy scalped three wickets each to restrict RCB at 157/8.
