Cummins has smashed the joint-fastest half-century at No. 7. He took 14 balls to score his fifty (56* off 15) against Mumbai Indians (MI) in 2022.
Romario Shepherd (53* off 14) equalled Cummins’ record against CSK in 2025. Interestingly, Shepherd is the only batter to score an IPL fifty after coming to bat in the death overs. He entered RCB’s innings at the mark of 17.5 overs.

Over 25 batters have scored at least one half-century while batting at the No. 7 position. More than half of those instances have come in the second innings.
