7) Most consecutive 40+ scores
Kolkata's Robin Uthappa has been on an incredible run of form in this season's IPL. Since May 2, the stylish right-hander has put together 10 consecutive 40-plus scores to launch his surging team into the tournament's final. Prior to this tournament, no one had put together more than five straight scores of 40 or more in the IPL's history. In Twenty20 cricket as a whole, HD Ackerman's string of six such innings was the previous world record.
He also became the highest Indian run getter in any IPL season so far with 655 runs in 15 matches. The record was previously held by Sachin Tendulkar who scored 618 runs in IPL 2010 and that too in 15 matches.
