Devon Conway
extended his hot streak in the Indian Premier League 2022, scoring his third
half-century in a row for Chennai Super Kings . Conway scored 50 runs off
the 27th ball he faced against the Delhi Capitals in his fourth game for the
Yellow Army.

With a
half-century in the current match, he became the third CSK batter to reach
three consecutive half-centuries. Ruturaj Gaikwad was the first batter for CSK
to reach this milestone, scoring back-to-back half-centuries in the final three
league stage games of IPL 2020. In IPL 2021, Faf du Plessis, who now manages
Royal Challengers Bangalore, joins Ruturaj in the elite list.

Conway
travelled to South Africa for his wedding in the third week of April and
returned to India last week. He was given a chance in the preceding Sunday’s
league stage match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (May 1). Conway and Ruturaj
Gaikwad embarked up a 182-run stand to push the score to 202/2. CSK triumphed
by 13 runs in that game.

In the
following match against Royal Challengers Bangalore, the opener once again
provided a great start, scoring 54 runs for the first wicket. Conway continued
to bat, hitting 56 off 37 balls. CSK was defeated by 13 runs in that match. If
Conway scores another half-century in the next game, he will become only the
second batsman in CSK history to record four consecutive half-centuries. CSK’s
current match versus DC is a must-win. If they lose the game, their prospects
of making the playoffs are officially over.
