Needing 26 runs, Warner achieved the milestone in the course of the IPL 2023 match towards Rajasthan Royals at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati on Saturday. He now has 6039 runs below his belt in 165 video games.
Former Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Virat Kohli leads the chart with 6727 runs from 225 matches adopted by Punjab Kings skipper Shikhar Dhawan (6370 runs in 208 matches).
Warner waged a lone battle in an enormous 200-run chase towards Royals with a 65-run knock. His 55-ball keep on the crease ended when Yuzvendra Chahal trapped him in entrance of the wicket.
DC’ agonising wait to open their account within the match continued as they suffered their third successive loss. They misplaced the match by 57 runs after being restricted to 142/9 by the Royals.
Sent in to bat, RR scored 199 for 4 as younger Yashasvi Jaiswal and Jos Buttler gave a blazing begin by placing on 98 runs for the primary wicket in simply 8.3 overs.
While Jaiswal slammed 60 off 31 balls, the seasoned Buttler struck 79 in 51 deliveries. Later, Shimron Hetmyer blasted a 21-ball 39 not out.
