Orange Cap leaderboardVirat Kohli (RCB) became the third-ranked batter on the run-getters’ table when he was done for the day, the fifth batter to top 300 runs for the season, but Suryakumar Yadav (MI) got there later in the day, too, and went past Kohli to third spot.Kohli has been scoring consistently without setting the tournament on fire all this while, and has been there and thereabouts on the leaderboard. In the day game on Sunday, Kohli was faced with a moderate chase of 158 and led the way for his team as they pulled off a seven-wicket win.He scored 73 not out off 54 balls, and that has taken his tally for the season to 322 runs. For Kohli, it was the fourth half-century of the season, and he now averages a remarkable 64.40 – the highest for batters with over 150 runs and only behind Tim David’s 142.00 in the tournament overall. His strike rate of 140.00 is the poorest among the top five, though.Suryakumar then scored 68 not out off 30 balls as MI beat CSK by nine wickets to take his aggregate to 333, ending the weekend only behind Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) batter Nicholas Pooran (368 runs) and B Sai Sudharsan (365) of Gujarat Titans (GT). GT take on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Monday, and Sai Sudharsan needs just four runs to take the Orange Cap.Behind Suryakumar and Kohli, also past the 300-run mark, are GT’s Jos Buttler (315) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (307) of Rajasthan Royals (RR). LSG’s Mitchell Marsh, for so long only behind Pooran and Sai Sudharsan, has fallen to No. 7 with 299 runs.7:26
Pujara: Kohli is the best when it comes to chases
Purple Cap leaderboardA number of bowlers who had a shot at getting close to GT’s table-topper Prasidh Krishna’s 14 wickets on Sunday, but none of them got a wicket. Noor Ahmad and Khaleel Ahmed of CSK, Josh Hazlewood (RCB) and MI captain Hardik Pandya went wicketless in their respective games, while Arshdeep Singh’s lone strike against RCB has now put him in the mix, but he is still some way away.Prasidh Krishna leads the table, followed by Delhi Capitals’ (DC) Kuldeep Yadav, Noor, Hazlewood and LSG’s Shardul Thakur at 12 wickets each, followed by the five bowlers with 11 wickets: GT duo R Sai Kishore and Mohammed Siraj, Hardik, Arshdeep and Khaleel.Highest batting strike ratesBest bowling economy ratesMost sixesBest bowling figures in a match
