The Indian Premier League has given us many memorable innings which are still remembered for being a run-fest. On many occasions, we have seen the bowlers getting hammered out of the park and thus several records were broken and rescripted in the past. The fans also have enjoyed watching big scores on the scoreboard. It just means that the game can be actually taken away by two batsmen. Ahead of the IPL 2021, let's have a look at 3 big partnerships in the history of the tournament so far. IPL 2021: RCB's Daniel Sams Tests Positive for COVID-19.
