How many wickets are taken by a bowler in an innings is the criteria for measuring the bowler’s performance. But grass is not always greener for the bowler, so their performance is measured based on how many runs they gave during the match.
Unfortunately, every bowler faces a situation when they fail to fulfill the expectations and are beaten by the batsman at least once in their cricket career. The most runs conceded by a bowler in IPL innings is that ill-fated record.
Basil Thampi holds this most unfortunate record for most runs conceded by a bowler in IPL innings. While playing for the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 2018 season, Basil Thampi gave away 70 runs in 4 overs which resulted in an economy rate of 17.50.
Yash Dayal comes second in the list for most runs conceded by a bowler in the IPL innings and gave away 69 runs off his 4 overs in the 2023 IPL season.
Ishant Sharma is the next bowler who gave away 66 runs in 4 overs to the Chennai Super Kings while playing for the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 2013 IPL season.
