David Warner is the only overseas star to do so, having also scored 400 runs in seven seasons on the trot while with the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Warner started his streak in 2013 when he managed 410 runs. He followed it up by scoring 528 runs in 2014, 562 runs in 2015, 848 runs in 2016, 641 runs in 2017, 692 runs in 2018, and 548 runs in 2020.
