In the ongoing IPL 2025 match between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, Romario Shepard has scripted history as he smashed the fastest fifty of IPL 2025. Notably, the West Indies batter came to bat when RCB were struggling for 157/5 after 17.4 overs and he brought up his fifty in just 14 balls. 

It is worth noting that Shepard also broke Chris Gayle's record to score the fastest fifty in IPL by an RCB batter. Notably, Gayle held the record for the longest time as he whacked a 17-ball fifty in 2013. Here is the complete list.
