Most runs needed off final over...and chased

The record for the most runs successfully chased in the final over of a T20 match is 29 runs, an extraordinary feat achieved by Rinku Singh of the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) against the Gujarat Titans in the 2023 Indian Premier League (IPL), where he secured the win by hitting five consecutive sixes. While several thrilling chases of 20 or more runs have occurred in T20s, a successful chase of 24 runs in the final over of a Men's T20 International (T20I) was achieved by Australia against India in 2023. In the 50-over format, the record for the most runs successfully chased in the final over of a One Day International (ODI) match is 20 runs, accomplished by Michael Bracewell for New Zealand against Ireland in 2022.
