Royal Challengers Bangalore's (RCB) power-hitter Romario Shepherd delivered the most destructive innings of the indian Premier League (IPL) 2025.

As indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 heads into its nail-biting playoff phase, the spotlight is on the big hitters who turned games around in a matter of balls.


While batters with big totals usually grab headlines, this season saw three explosive all-rounders steal the show with their unbelievable strike rates in individual innings.


Romario Shepherd tops the chart with a brutal knock

Royal Challengers Bangalore's (RCB) power-hitter Romario Shepherd delivered the most destructive innings of the indian Premier League (IPL) 2025.

In a clash against chennai Super Kings, Shepherd smashed 53 runs off just 14 balls, hammering 4 fours and 6 sixes. His strike rate of 378.57 is the highest for any batter in a single innings this season - a true display of raw hitting power.


Marcus Stoinis fires for punjab Kings

Punjab Kings' all-rounder Marcus Stoinis comes in at number two. He played a fiery knock against Sunrisers hyderabad, scoring 34 runs in just 11 balls, which included 1 four and 4 sixes. With a strike rate of 309.09, Stoinis proved to be a match-winner in the death overs.


Shubham Dubey equals the feat for Rajasthan Royals

Shubham Dubey of rajasthan Royals also joins this elite group. The left-hander played an identical knock of 34 off 11 balls against Sunrisers hyderabad (SRH), matching Stoinis' performance with the same 309.09 strike rate, thanks to 1 four and 4 sixes. His explosive style has added valuable depth to rajasthan Royals' middle order.


These three all-rounders may not top the indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season's run charts, but their ability to change the game in just a few balls makes them some of the most feared finishers of IPL 2025. With the playoffs underway, expect more fireworks from these game-changers.
