Chennai Super Kings opening batter Ruturaj Gaikwad equalled the record of legendary Sachin Tendulkar by becoming the joint-fastest Indian to score 1000 runs in the history of the Indian Premier League.
Gaikwad reached the feat in match number 46 of the ongoing IPL 2022 between CSK and SunRisers Hyderabad.
The duo of Tendulkar and Gaikwad are followed by Suresh Raina (34 innings), Rishabh Pant (35 innings) and Devdutt Padikkal (35 innings) on the list.
He scored 99 off 57 and stitched a 182-run partnership with Devon Conway which is now CSK's highest opening stand in IPL history.
