He adapted to his new home ground in Ahmedabad effortlessly, boasting an impressive average of 60.23 and a strike rate of 160.25. His recent performance of a 27-ball 38 against MI only adds to his incredible record in Ahmedabad.
In the recent past, Gill displayed an impressive performance at this location. He achieved a total of 890 runs, out of which he scored 572 runs at this very venue. Among these runs were two centuries, with his highest score being 129. Notably, this exceptional display was against MI during their Qualifier 2 match.
In 22 innings, David Warner has been a formidable presence at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.
David Warner’s relationship with Hyderabad has been well-documented, and despite his departure from Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), he had truly made the city feel like a second home. During his first IPL match at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, he was playing as an away player for Delhi Capitals (formerly Delhi Daredevils), and delivered an outstanding performance of 109 runs against the previous franchise Deccan Chargers. From then on, he never turned back.
In Hyderabad, Warner achieved a remarkable record of 1623 runs with an average of 64.92 and a strike rate of 160.53, including three centuries. One memorable moment was in 2017 when he reached his 1000th run at the stadium in just 59 balls while playing against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).

The initial receiver of the Orange Cap title, Shaun Marsh, took full advantage of his home ground, tallying 1064 runs with a strike rate of 130.23. His Mohali performance was particularly impressive, as he maintained an average of 44.33 and scored a whopping 289 runs out of his total of 616 in IPL 2008.
In contrast to the three players ranked higher, Marsh primarily scored his runs from the No. 3 position. His penultimate innings in Mohali saw him reach the 1000-run milestone, hitting a quick 58 off just 43 balls against Gujarat Lions during IPL 2017.

Despite not being able to play at their home ground for two seasons due to the Covid-19 pandemic, he maintains a remarkable strike rate of 162.12 for MI.
During MI’s second-to-last home match in the IPL 2024 season, Suryakumar achieved an outstanding score of 102 against SRH, surpassing 1000 runs at the same venue.
