Fastest 50 in IPL: Indian Premier League is a popular T20 cricket tournament famous for its exciting matches. One of the main reasons behind the excitement of the IPL is its powerful batting. Nothing excites the crowd more than a cap and the success of their favorite players.
Many renowned batsmen have participated in the IPL throughout its 16 seasons, but only a few have managed to register hard-hitting knocks like fifties and hundreds. Some batsmen came in as replacements or at the last minute and delivered match-winning centuries. Today we cover the list of fastest fifty in IPL history from 2008 to 2023.
