Fastest 50 in IPL For RR

Rajasthan Royals was the first team who won the inaugural title of the Indian Premier League in 2008 under the leadership of skipper Shane Warne. In 2013 and 2022, they reached the finals under the captaincy of Rahul Dravid and Sanju Samson but could not lift the IPL trophy. They also faced a difficult time when Rajasthan was fired from the league for the 2016 and 2017 seasons. It's important to remember that the Indian Premier League is a game with a rapid pace style where players generally strive to make runs rapidly by hitting boundaries. As a consequence, especially in the latter innings, it's not unusual for batters to reach 50 runs in fewer than 25 balls. For Rajasthan Royals, there are many occasions when batters have added the fastest 50 in IPL.

Jos Buttler is standing at the top position for making the fastest 50 in IPL for Rajasthan Royals. This English opener has achieved this feat from 18 balls while playing against Delhi. In the 2018 season of IPL, the 32nd match between Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals was disturbed by the rain and eventually, Rajasthan Royals was forced to fight back down 151 against Delhi Capitals in just 12 overs. Buttler once more had the task of energizing his squad's batting effort.  With a total of four 4s and seven 6s, he scored 67 off 26 balls after completing his 50 in only 18 balls. But it was not enough to achieve the victory and Rajasthan dropped the match by just a handful of four runs. But Buttler won the heart of his fans by making the record of the fastest 50 in IPL for Rajasthan.

Owais Shah - 19 Ball Fifty

Owais Shah is holding the 2nd position for striking the fastest 50 in IPL for Rajasthan Royals in the history of IPL. He achieved this feat from 19 balls while playing against Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2012. In the 18th match of the IPL 2012, Rajasthan Royals got the chance to bat first and they added 195 runs on the scoreboard and set a huge target of 196 for Bangalore.

Sanju Samson - 19 ball 50

Sanju Samson, the current skipper of Rajasthan Royals in 2023, holds the 3rd rank for making the fastest 50 in IPL for Rajasthan Royals. Sanju Samson destroyed the CSK bowlers in the fourth match of the 2020 IPL campaign between RR and CSK, scoring 74 off 32 balls with a single boundary and nine 6s all throughout the innings he played. In just 19 balls, he reached his fifty-run milestone and contributed to Rajasthan's total of 216/7. As a response, CSK came quite close to reaching the objective but ultimately fell 16 runs behind and lost the match. 

Jos Buttler - 20 ball half centuries

Jo Buttler once again is listed at the number 4th position for hitting the fastest 50 in IPL for Rajasthan Royals.

Throughout the entire innings, Jos Buttler played some amazing shots and made 54 runs from 22 balls with seven 4s and three 6s at a strike rate of 245.45. In reply, Sunrisers Hyderabad could not get a good start and could make 131 runs only and thus lost the match by a big gap of 72 runs. Jos Buttler was named Man of the Match for his incredible match-winning innings.
