The countdown to T20 World Cup 2026 begins February 7, with India-Sri Lanka hosting the 10th chapter. No Kohli, no Rohit, no Warner—but their elite stats promise to overshadow the action.
King Kohli leads with 1,292 runs (33 innings, 35 matches, 2012-2024), 15 fifties at 58.72. Rohit Sharma’s 1,220 (44 innings, 47 matches, 2007-2024), 12 fifties at 34.85, follows suit. Their post-2024 retirements mark an era’s end.
Mahela Jayawardene (1,016 runs, 31 matches, 2007-2014; 1×100, 6×50) is third. Fourth, Jos Buttler (1,013 runs, 34 innings, 35 matches, 2012-2024; 1×100, 5×50) gears up for 2026, the only top-5 player still in the fray.
Warner (984 runs, 41 innings, 2009-2024; 8×50) rounds it out. These feats embody T20 excellence, fueling anticipation for Buttler’s bid to redefine the leaderboard in the upcoming spectacle.
