Brandon McCullum's 158* while playing for Kolkata Knight Riders in the opener of the inaugural IPL season was the then highest individual score in a T20 game before it was eclipsed by Chris Gayle's 175 in IPL 2013.

After spending his first three years of IPL career at KKR, he played for Kochi Tuskers Kerala and returned back to the franchise for another two-year stint. All in all, he spent five years with KKR and enjoyed a decent career.

However, the two seasons (2014-15) he spent playing for Chennai Super Kings will be widely remembered by the fans because of the kind of innings he has played. He scored 3 fifties and a hundred with the CSK franchise.

He spent 2016 and 2017 editions of IPL playing for the Gujarat Lions and played some wonderful innings before joining the Royal Challengers Bangalore for IPL 2018. He only featured in 6 matches and did not enjoy great success.
