What an innings by Heinrich Klaasen! Before signing off officially from the ongoing IPL 2025, Sunrisers Hyderabad perhaps pulled off one of their best performances of the season thanks to the monstrous batting display by the South African international. 

With only 37 balls, Klaasen got his 100 today (May 25) against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Arun Jaitley stadium. With the form Klaasen has produced, there was no one from KKR who could stop him; he was invincible tonight.

After facing 39 deliveries, the 33-year-old batter remained not out for 105 with a strike rate of 269.23. The middle-order batter hit nine 6s and seven 4s to bolster his record-shattering innings in the Indian Premier League. With the support of the ton, SRH, as the team, put an unthinkable total of 278 in the 20-over limit with the exchange of only 3 wickets.

Klaasen's best IPL season so far
