Sharjah Cricket Stadium IPL records: Who has scored the most IPL runs in Sharjah?

Sharjah Cricket Stadium IPL records: Sharjah Cricket Stadium has hosted a total of 18 IPL matches till date.

Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings will be playing their second match of the ongoing second phase of the 14th season of the Indian Premier League in Sharjah tomorrow.

In what will be the first match to be played at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium this season, it is more than likely to register a high-scoring contest primarily because of its small boundary size.

Sharjah, which has hosted just 18 matches of the IPL over the years, has hosted the least number of matches among three UAE venues.

Royal Challengers, who started this leg on a losing note, would be banking on star names such as Glenn Maxwell, Virat Kohli and Yuzvendra Chahal for the trio has done well at this venue in the past.

Super Kings, on the other hand, don’t have individual moments of brilliance in Sharjah but a team of their experience has it in it to challenge RCB on Friday.
