Lowest totals successfully defended in IPL

• 111 - Punjab Kings (v Kolkata Knight Riders, 2025)

Punjab Kings posted a total of 111 in Mullanpur and had a 4% chance of victory according to analysts' CricViz's WinViz metric when the Kolkata Knight Riders reached 72-3 with 11 overs remaining.

Yuzvendra Chahal then claimed the crucial scalp of Angkrish Raghuvanshi and the wickets soon started to tumble, with Chahal going on to take a four-fer while Marco Jansen ripped through the lower order.

Having been 40 runs from victory, Kolkata were remarkably all out for 95 having lost six wickets in just 5.2 overs.

• 116 - Chennai Super Kings (v Kings XI Punjab, 2009)

In the business end of the regular season, the Chennai Super Kings limped to a measly 116, despite posting an average run-rate of 8.28 in the first six overs of the innings.

Kings XI Punjab understandably marched off feeling quite pleased with themselves but their batting order were soon given a harsh lesson by Chennai's relentless spinners.

Inspired by Muttiah Muralitharan, the Super Kings restricted all but two batters to single figures and Yuvraj Singh's side could only muster 92 runs from 20 overs.

• 118 - Sunrisers Hyderabad (v Mumbai Indians, 2018)

Bowled out for 118 in 18.4 overs, it was a bleak outlook for the Sunrisers Hyderabad as they returned to the field for Mumbai Indians' innings.

Fortunately for Hyderabad, their bowling department was in red-hot form as Rashid Khan bowled 16 dots in four overs and Siddarth Kaul claimed three wickets, including the crucial dismissal of Hardik Pandya.

Mumbai reached 87 before they were bowled out, resulting in a comfortable 31-run triumph for the Sunrisers.
