The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) hitter achieved the feat in their match against Delhi Capitals (DC) at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, adding 26 runs from 17 balls with three boundaries and a six before falling to Axar Patel.<\/p>\n<h2>Key takeaways<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Tim David reached 1,000 IPL runs during RCB\u2019s fixture against Delhi Capitals at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.<\/li>\n<li>David\u2019s knock of 26 (17 balls) included three fours and one six, at a strike rate of 152.94.<\/li>\n<li>His milestone came off 560 balls, making him the second-fastest to the 1,000-run mark in IPL history.<\/li>\n<li>In 56 matches and 50 innings for Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru combined, David has 1,019 runs at 36.39, with a strike rate of 177.83.<\/li>\n<li>Delhi Capitals restricted RCB to 175\/8 after opting to bowl first following the toss.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>David\u2019s IPL milestone and numbers<\/h2>\n<p>For Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, David has played 56 matches and batted in 50 innings, accumulating 1,019 runs. His run-scoring rate stands at 36.39 with a strike rate of 177.83, and he has recorded two fifties. His highest IPL score is 70 not out.<\/p>\n<p>In the current season, David has featured in six matches across six innings, totalling 173 runs. He carries an average of 86.50 and a strike rate of 203.52, including one fifty, with a top score of 70 not out.<\/p>\n<p>David\u2019s 1,000-run milestone is the second-quickest in IPL terms of balls faced, achieved in 560 deliveries. Andre Russell holds the fastest record, reaching the same mark in 545 balls. Among the 109 players who have recorded at least one IPL run, David\u2019s strike rate is the only one above 175, currently sitting at 177.83.<\/p>\n<h2>RCB vs DC: opening stand, then wickets<\/h2>\n<p>In the match itself, DC won the toss and chose to bowl first. RCB got off to a solid start with a 52-run opening partnership between Phil Salt and Virat Kohli, with Kohli contributing 19 off 13 balls and striking with three fours.<\/p>\n<p>Salt made the most of the early momentum, scoring 63 off 38 balls, including four fours and three sixes. Despite the promising foundation, the rest of the RCB batting lineup failed to convert their starts into big scores, leaving the team with 175\/8 from their 20 overs.<\/p>\n<p>DC\u2019s wicket-takers kept the pressure on throughout the innings. Axar Patel finished with figures of 2\/18, while Kuldeep Yadav (2\/32) and Lungi Ngidi (2\/39) also took two wickets each, ensuring RCB could not fully capitalise on their platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Australian batter Tim David marked a special landmark in IPL action on Saturday, becoming the second-fastest player to reach 1,000 runs in the league.
