Punjab Kings and captain Shreyas Iyer<\/a> scripted unwanted T20 records after another brutal bowling performance saw them concede 222 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in a crucial IPL 2026 clash on Sunday.Most 200-plus totals conceded<\/span> in Men\u2019s T20 cricket<\/span>46 – PBKS40 – RCB35 – DC34 – RR34 – SRH33 – MiddlesexThe heavy total further exposed PBKS\u2019 struggles with the ball this season. They have now conceded 200-plus totals 46 times in men\u2019s T20 cricket, the most by any team in the format\u2019s history. RCB are second on the list with 40 such instances, while Delhi Capitals follow with 35.The latest hammering also pushed Punjab Kings to another unwanted milestone. They have now conceded 200-plus scores nine times in IPL 2026 alone, the most by any team in a single men\u2019s T20 competition.Most 200-plus totals conceded under a captain (Men\u2019s T20s)<\/span>31 – Shreyas Iyer29 – Faf du Plessis28 – MS Dhoni21 – Babar Azam20 – Rishabh Pant<\/a>For Shreyas Iyer, the night became even more painful statistically. The PBKS skipper now holds the record for most 200-plus totals conceded by a captain in men\u2019s T20 cricket with 31, moving further ahead of former RCB captain Faf du Plessis on 29 and MS Dhoni on 28.Punjab\u2019s bowlers once again failed to contain an opposition batting lineup on a batting-friendly surface. Virat Kohli laid the platform with a fluent 58 off 37 balls, while Devdutt Padikkal struck a quickfire 45 off 25 deliveries during an aggressive second-wicket stand.However, it was Venkatesh Iyer<\/a> who completely shifted the momentum in RCB\u2019s favour. The left-hander blasted an unbeaten 73 off just 40 balls, attacking both pace and spin with ease as Punjab\u2019s bowling attack lost control once again. Tim David added further damage with a brutal cameo of 28 from 12 balls in the death overs.In a match PBKS desperately needed to win to stay alive in the playoff race, another expensive outing with the ball only deepened their problems and added more unwanted records to an increasingly difficult season.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
