Most 200-plus totals conceded in Men’s T20 cricket
46 – PBKS
40 – RCB
35 – DC
34 – RR
34 – SRH
33 – Middlesex
The heavy total further exposed PBKS’ struggles with the ball this season. They have now conceded 200-plus totals 46 times in men’s T20 cricket, the most by any team in the format’s history. RCB are second on the list with 40 such instances, while Delhi Capitals follow with 35.
The latest hammering also pushed Punjab Kings to another unwanted milestone. They have now conceded 200-plus scores nine times in IPL 2026 alone, the most by any team in a single men’s T20 competition.
Most 200-plus totals conceded under a captain (Men’s T20s)
31 – Shreyas Iyer
29 – Faf du Plessis
28 – MS Dhoni
21 – Babar Azam
20 – Rishabh Pant
For Shreyas Iyer, the night became even more painful statistically. The PBKS skipper now holds the record for most 200-plus totals conceded by a captain in men’s T20 cricket with 31, moving further ahead of former RCB captain Faf du Plessis on 29 and MS Dhoni on 28.
Punjab’s bowlers once again failed to contain an opposition batting lineup on a batting-friendly surface. Virat Kohli laid the platform with a fluent 58 off 37 balls, while Devdutt Padikkal struck a quickfire 45 off 25 deliveries during an aggressive second-wicket stand.
However, it was Venkatesh Iyer who completely shifted the momentum in RCB’s favour. The left-hander blasted an unbeaten 73 off just 40 balls, attacking both pace and spin with ease as Punjab’s bowling attack lost control once again. Tim David added further damage with a brutal cameo of 28 from 12 balls in the death overs.
In a match PBKS desperately needed to win to stay alive in the playoff race, another expensive outing with the ball only deepened their problems and added more unwanted records to an increasingly difficult season.
