In IPL 2025 on Thursday, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) explosive batsman Travis Head’s bat did not work against Mumbai Indians. Despite this, he registered a unique record in his name. He has become the second fastest player to score 1 thousand runs in IPL history. He achieved this feat in the 33rd match of IPL against Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium.

Australian opener Travis Head has been handling the opening batting order with young Abhishek Sharma for Sunrisers Hyderabad since IPL 2024. He achieved this feat by scoring 28 runs off 29 balls against Mumbai. Travis Head completed his 1000 runs in 575 balls and was second only to Andre Russell (545). Heinrich Klaasen is third in the list of batsmen who scored 1000 runs in the least number of balls in IPL history.
