Tim David has scored 142 points at a striking rate of almost 200 until now at IPL 2025.
With nine wickets down for just 64, Royal Challengers Bengaluru were staring down the barrel of humiliation. In a rain-shortened 14-over clash against Punjab Kings at the Chinnaswamy, the memories of their infamous 49 all-out threatened to resurface. But Tim David had other plans. His unbeaten 50 off 26 balls wasn’t just a rescue act—it was a declaration.
On a night when RCB’s other ten batters combined for just 44 runs, David stood tall to hammer 50 runs off 26 alone. Remember he was picked up for just Rs 3 crore at the IPL 2025 mega auction! Bargain stuff.
Final Over Breakdown (Harpreet Brar):
| Ball | Runs | Shot Description |
|---|---|---|
| 13.4 | 6 | Slammed over long-off |
| 13.5 | 6 | Rocked back, pulled to cow corner |
| 13.6 | 6+nb | Carved over deep cover on a no-ball |
| 13.6 | 2 | Flat-batted over mid-on, FIFTY for David |
