IPL 2025: What Records Can Be Broken This Season?
Records That Can Be Broken in IPL 2025
The first month of the 2025 IPL season has certainly lived up to the billing, and while we have seen a fair few surprises so far, there’s still everything to play for with just four points separating the league-leading Delhi Capitals and second-bottom Sunrisers Hyderabad.
In addition to teams jostling for a spot in the knockout rounds, players also have their eyes on individual accolades, and there are plenty of records that are on the line as we head into the second half of the competition.
Starting with the Chennai Super Kings, veteran Ravindra Jadeja entered the tournament needing eight wickets to surpass Dwayne Bravo as the team’s all-time wicket taker. The 36-year-old has picked up two scalps so far, meaning he needs six more to break the record.

You cannot discuss IPL records without bringing up Virat Kohli. The RCB and India batsman is the competition's all-time leading run-scorer with an incredible tally of 8,252 runs, and he needs just one more half-century to go above David Warner for most 50+ scores in the IPL.
Rohit Sharma is having a tough 2025 campaign, managing just 56 runs in five innings. However, he can still make his mark on the competition, needing 86 more runs to go past Shikhar Dhawan and become the second-highest run-scorer in IPL's history behind Kohli.
This season, Sharma has become the first Mumbai Indians player to score 5,500 IPL career runs!
Jasprit Bumrah missed the Mumbai Indians’ first four games of the competition owing to a back injury that also forced him to miss the ICC Champions Trophy last month. However, the Indian paceman is back in action now and needs five more wickets to overtake Lasith Malinga as Mumbai Indians’ highest wicket-taker.
Records That Have Already Been Broken in IPL 2025
The Royal Challengers Bangalore’s Bhuveneshar Kumar added his name to the history books this season, becoming the third-highest wicket-taker in the IPL with 181 scalps. He now trails only Yuzvendra Chahal (206) and Piyush Chawla (192) in the all-time list.
Kohli became the IPL’s fourth-most capped player after Sunday’s match against Rajasthan, while a few days earlier, Jadeja went third in the same list, with only Rohit Sharma and his teammate MS Dhoni now ahead of him with 240 appearances in the competition.
Jadeja also became the first player to complete the double of 3000 runs and 100 wickets in the IPL this season!
Chennai Super Kings’ legend MS Dhoni added yet another record to his IPL collection, becoming the franchise’s highest run-scorer this year. He overtook ex-CSK star Suresh Raina, who held the record with 4,687 runs. At 43 years and 9 months old, Dhoni is also the oldest player to feature in the IPL.
