Ishan Kishan managed to deliver a striking performance during IPL 2025. After his 45-ball hundred against the Rajasthan Royals, Kishan had set expectations for many runs through batting but he failed to meet those expectations. Ishan Kishan’s inadequate performance contributed to the elimination of Hyderabad’s team from playoff contention. The postponed 55th match of IPL 2025 (SRH vs DC, IPL 2025) succumbed to rain, while this omission destroyed Hyderabad’s championship aspirations.
Ishan Kishan created history
Ishan Kishan achieved a world first by taking catches of all the top-four batsmen from the opposing team in the same innings of IPL history. Ishan Kishan acted as a fielder to catch all four batsmen who gained wickets during Delhi’s first innings. Ishan’s singular achievement of catching all four opening batsmen stands as one of cricket’s rare occurrences to date. A cricket player completes this rare achievement for the first time by taking all four catches when the first four wickets fell in an IPL match.
Profitable wicketkeeping proved exceptional as Ishan caught Karun Nair and Faf, then Abhishek Porel, and further impressed fans by grabbing KL Rahul when he joined the match as number 4.

During an IPL match for Sunrisers Hyderabad, Ishan secured the highest number of wicketkeeping catches for his team.

During the Delhi match, Ishan achieved the notable milestone by taking 4 catches, which matched Naman Ojha’s record as Sunrisers Hyderabad’s wicketkeeper across all previous IPL innings.
