5 highest partnerships in the IPL

​

Despite all the personal brilliance, despite all the personal accolades and feats, cricket is inherently a team game where cumulative efforts more often than not determine the eventual result.

While Twenty20 is all about fast-paced action, while it is all about personal brilliance with the bat, it is also about stitching partnerships together, it is also about hunting in pairs, it is also about understanding the specific roles and then gelling well together to get the job done out in the centre.

Now, let us take a look at five such batting partnerships which have topped the Indian Premier League charts.

#5 David Warner and Naman Ojha

Back in 2012, David Warner was included in the Delhi Daredevils side instead of Kevin Pietersen and he made an immediate splash.

It was his only second game in that season and he notched up his second hundred in the league as Delhi Daredevils swatted aside an inexperience Deccan Chargers bowling attack.

Chargers set Delhi a target of 187, and when Virender Sehwag was dismissed for four, they believed they could eek out a win.

But then Naman Ojha joined David Warner and the duo carved open the Chargers bowling attack as they put on an unbeaten 189 runs stand for the second wicket and won the game by nine wickets.
