He has been in superb form in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 as he finished second highest runscorer in the tournament with 717 runs from 16 matches which included six not outs, average of 65 and a strike rate of 167. The 35-year-old also set a new T20 record of most consecutive 25+ scores as he scored more than 25 in 16 consecutive matches.
