One match on 29 April 2026 rewrote the Wankhede IPL record book.
MI posted 243/5 batting first — the highest IPL first-innings total at Wankhede — powered by Ryan Rickelton’s 123 off 55 balls*. SRH then chased it down, finishing on 249/4 in 18.4 overs. Both major records — highest team total and highest successful chase at Wankhede — were set in the same game.
Before that, RCB’s 235/1 from 2015 was the long-standing Wankhede high. But IPL 2026 has now pushed it down the list: RCB also made 240/4 vs MI at Wankhede on 12 April 2026, so 235/1 is no longer a top-three team total at this venue.

Harbhajan Singh’s 5/18 against CSK in 2011 and Wanindu Hasaranga’s 5/18 against SRH in 2022 are the joint-best IPL bowling figures at Wankhede, adding strong venue context to the impact of top IPL spin bowlers ESPNcricinfo confirms Harbhajan’s 5/18 in MI’s 8-run win over CSK, while ESPN also confirms Hasaranga’s 5/18 in RCB’s 67-run win over SRH at Wankhede.
Important correction: Sunil Narine’s 5/19 was not at Wankhede. That spell came at Eden Gardens against Kings XI Punjab in 2012, so it should not be used in a Wankhede records article.

Why Wankhede Stadium Is So Good for Batting
|
Factor |
Impact |
|
Flat pitch, true bounce |
Ball comes onto the bat cleanly; batters play with confidence |
|
Short square boundaries |
Pull and cut shots clear the rope more regularly |
|
Fast outfield |
Ground shots race to the boundary faster than most IPL grounds |
|
Evening dew |
Bowlers lose grip in the second innings; chasing teams benefit |
|
Sea breeze |
Can help new-ball swing early, especially under lights |
Wankhede is not a free hit from ball one. New-ball bowlers can get swing and seam early under lights. But once batters are set and the ball gets old, the short boundaries, fast outfield, and dew take over.
The April 2026 MI vs SRH match — 243/5 in the first innings, 249/4 in the chase — is the clearest modern example of what this ground can produce, especially in an era where teams are constantly pushing records for the most sixes in an IPL season by team
