IPL 2026: I Just Wanted To Bat According To The Situation And The Ball, Says Urvil On 13-ball Fifty
Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings’ top-order batter Urvil Patel said he kept his approach simple while blazing his way to a record‑equalling 13‑ball half‑century against Lucknow Super Giants in the side’s five-wicket win in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Sunday.
Urvil’s knock of 65 off 23 balls, studded with eight sixes and two fours, set the tone for CSK’s successful chase of 204 and lifted them to fifth spot on the points table. He now shares the record for IPL’s fastest fifty with Yashasvi Jaiswal, who claimed the record on his way to making 98 not out against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023.
With chants of “Urvil! Urvil!” reverberating in the electrified stands at Chepauk, Urvil Patel pulled off a touching gesture by taking out a note from his pocket that read, “This is for you, Dad,” along with some lines in Gujarati. His knock also helped CSK pull off a chase above 180 for the first time since 2019.
