Put in to bat, SRH openers Mayank Agarwal and Travis Head helped them score a massive 81 in the powerplay, before they raced to 148 in 10 overs, and 201 in 15 overs. They eventually finished on 277/3, the highest-ever IPL score thanks to an end-overs blitz from Heinrich Klaasen (80*) and Aiden Markram (42*).
In reply, MI managed to keep up with the asking rate for much of their innings, but eventually fell short by 31 runs as they finished on 246/5.
Highest aggregate score in an IPL match
The match between SRH and MI saw a stunning total of 523 runs scored, the highest ever in IPL history. It smashed the previous record of 469, set when CSK scored 246/5 and RR scored 223/5 in 2010.
This is the fifth time in all T20 cricket that the match aggregate has breached 500 runs and the first time in the history of IPL.
