In a thrilling encounter at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium on May 25, 2025, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) delivered a historic performance, dismantling the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) with an astonishing total of 278/3—one of the highest in IPL history. At the heart of this record-breaking feat was a jaw-dropping innings from Heinrich.
Heinrich Klaasen’s innings was more than a hundred—it was a cricketing spectacle. Walking in after a solid platform set by the SRH openers, Klaasen ignited fireworks, reaching his century in just 37 balls—the joint third-fastest in IPL history. His bat spoke with both raw power and surgical precision as he dismantled the KKR bowling attack.
From audacious reverse sweeps to monstrous hits over long-on, Klaasen showcased the full range of his arsenal. Every shot told a story of intent and dominance. His innings wasn’t merely about runs; it was a statement of authority, redefining what aggressive T20 batting looks like.
