Sunil Narine hits fastest fifty

Chris Lynn completed his fifty in 22 balls.

Narine took just 15 deliveries to complete his half ton.

He shares joint top spot with Yusuf Pathan, who smashed his fifty in 15 deliveries against Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2014.

Narine and Lynn stitched 105-run stand for the opening wicket in 6 overs.

Royal Challengers Bangalore posted a decent total of 158 runs at the M. Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru against Kolkata Knight Riders.

Royal Challengers suffered yet another top order batting collapse as Chris Gayle, AB de Villiers and Virat Kohli were dimissed for a combined 15 runs.

Playing his 100th IPL game, Chris Gayle was sent back to the pavilion with a golden duck.

Chinnaswamy stadium has witnessed some fierce knocks from the tall West Indian batsman but his fortress was breached by his own country compatriot, Sunil Narine, who scored the fastest fifty in the IPL history.
