25 Quirky and Nerdy Cricket Stats from 2025 That Fans Will Remember

The cricketing year of 2025 brought about numerous memorable and competitive games, as well as many notable achievements. It had many incredible records and strange statistics that cannot be explained. There are many ways for cricket to provide different avenues of opportunity for players through both franchise and test formats, and international events for female players. For fans of cricket who enjoy taking an in-depth look at cricket statistics, whether it be by looking at the individual scorecards or through sites like betinexchange, the cricketing statistics of 2025 are definitely a good representation of what that year will mean to the sport and should be seen in all future cricket-related conversations.

Franchise Cricket Records That Shocked Everyone

The Royal Challengers Bangalore achieved one of the greatest accomplishments in IPL history when they won every single away match that they participated in (including Qualifier 1 and the Championship game). Prior to 2025, no champion had managed to win all of their away games during a single season so this was an unprecedented season for Royal Challengers Bangalore.

In the 2025 season, after 17 years of not seeing an IPL Championship Match without MS Dhoni, we had the first Championship Match ever not involving MS Dhoni (both Championship matches occurred at the same time: for example, in 2025, MS Dhoni was not involved in either Championship match). This is a sign that the IPL is now entering into a new era. 

In 2025, Finn Allen established the IPL record for the most sixes in one T20 match by scoring 19 sixes (the most sixes scored by both men and women in any T20 match), proving that the evolution of Franchise Leagues has led to players pushing their limits of playability with bat and ball.

Individual Brilliance and the Growth of Global Cricket

There were several individual accomplishments that have influenced the multitude of statistics for some time this past calendar year. One of these was when Virat Kohli played for Delhi in the List-A format after being away from the sport for nearly 12 years, illustrating just how enduring a presence he has been in cricket and that he still has a major impact on the game today, despite being away for so long. Shai Hope holds the record for having the most distinct number of teams (13) to have scored an international century, a record that no other player has previously surpassed.

Younger players also played a large role in establishing new records in the game. Vaibhav Suryavanshi became the youngest player to achieve a List-A century when he accomplished this at the tender age of 14 years and 272 days. He had previously held the record for being the youngest player to achieve a T20 century. And on the women's side of the game, following a long absence, Shafali Verma became the youngest Player of the Match in a World Cup final, when she accomplished this at the age of only 21 years and 279 days.

In the year 2025, Women's cricket set multiple records. Women's International Cricketers scored the most 300 plus runs in one-day internationals, with India leading the category, with the increase in the number of high scores attributed to the rapid improvement in batting standards and the heightened competition of the women's one-day format.

Additionally, associate nations had their share of success in international cricket. Italy became the 15th associate team to qualify for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 and Spain made the headlines by putting together an impressive 20-match winning streak in Men's T20Is; one of the longest winning streaks in international cricket.

 

Conclusion

In 2025, the sport of cricket was regarded as an example of the fact that cricket is about more than just winning trophies. It is also about many other facets of cricket: such as the individual numbers produced by the players; being on tour unbeaten away from home (in Test matches) in the past 12 months; and many other great things that have taken place in the sport of cricket over the last 12 months. The events that have taken place during 2025 will not only have been enjoyed as they happened, but will be enjoyed again long after they have happened. Fans of cricket who enjoy looking at the trends and performances of players through different types of analysis and/or websites like betinexchange, will recognise and appreciate that the year 2025 will be remembered as one of the most statistically interesting chapters of modern day cricket.
