TATA IPL 2024: The IPL has given a thrilling experience in each season since 2008 and many games of this tournament have even finished on the last ball.

Due to that, the viewers have been glued to their TV sets and in this season as well, the TATA IPL 2024 will be full of action, thrill and drama.

In tomorrow’s encounter between CSK Vs RCB, another blockbuster clash is on the cards because both teams will want to win the first match of this season. The first match will be played at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai tomorrow, 22nd March 2024.

A run chase of more than 200 runs isn’t easy in the T20 Format. The opposition team who have scored that many runs is on top and the chasing side is under pressure.

But in the Indian Premier League, nothing is assured till the last delivery is bowled. A team needs just one good over to change the momentum of the game and win that match.

Having said that, three teams have achieved this record of chasing down the score of 200 or more runs and that too more than once in a single of this cash-rich league tournament.

In today’s segment, we will name those three franchise sides who have achieved this feat in the tournament so far.
