Moeen Ali went on to score 93 runs off 57 balls. He missed out on his maiden IPL century by 7 runs but still managed to score the personal best score of his entire IPL career. The all-rounder reached his fifty in just 19 balls, scoring the 2nd fastest fifty by a CSK player in IPL history. (Pic Courtesy: PTI)

The player who holds the record for scoring the fastest fifty by a CSK player in IPL is none other than 'Mr. IPL' Suresh Raina. The CSK legend had scored a 16-ball fifty against Punjab in IPL 2014. (Pic Courtesy: PTI)

Moeen’s fifty is also the second-fastest fifty by a player in IPL 2022. KKR's Pat Cummins’ jaw-dropping 14-ball half-century against Mumbai Indians (MI) at Pune is the fastest fifty in IPL 2022, also the joint-fastest in IPL history. (Pic Courtesy: PTI)
