In the ongoing IPL 2024 match between Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings, former MI skipper Rohit Sharma has crossed the 6500-run mark, making him the fourth player to enter this elite list. Since achieving 6500 IPL runs milestone is extremely tough, as only a few players have done so. Let’s take a look at all the batters who have achieved this milestone.
Players with 6500 runs in IPL
Batters | Teams | Runs |
Virat Kohli | RCB | 7624 |
Shikhar Dhawan | PBKS | 6769 |
David Warner | DC | 6563 |
Rohit Sharma | MI | 6508 |
King Kohli is still on top!
Former RCB skipper and star Indian batter Virat Kohli continues to dominate this chart. He has played 244 matches to date and has scored 7624 runs with an average of 38.12. Considered one of the greats of the game, he shows no signs of slowing down. With his current form in IPL 2024, having scored 361 runs in 7 matches with an average of 72, there is a strong chance he will approach the 8000-run mark soon.
Dhawan and Warner are not far behind
Apart from Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan and David Warner have the record of reaching the 6500-run mark. On one hand, Shikhar Dhawan has scored 6729 runs in 222 matches. On the other hand, Warner is also there, with 6563 runs in just 182 matches.
Hitman is steadily moving up
The former MI skipper has recently entered this elite list, and it is possible, looking at his recent form, that he might reach near the 7000-run mark as well in this ongoing IPL 2024.
