Key Insights

Ishan Kishan scored the first century of this season—an unbeaten 106 against Rajasthan Royals in his team SRH’s opening game.

The top five run-scorers from last year’s IPL haven’t performed consistently this season and are notably absent from the current top run-getters list.

If Virat Kohli crosses the 500-run mark this season, he will become the first player in IPL history to achieve eight 500+ run seasons. Meanwhile, KL Rahul is on track to reach his seventh such season, which would equal the record held by Warner and Kohli.

Shubman Gill has crossed the 400-run mark in each of the last five seasons, and he is very likely to do so again this year.

Nicholas Pooran was the first player to cross the 200-run mark this IPL. With the form he’s in, he’s a top contender for the Orange Cap this season. Close behind him is Sai Sudharsan, who is not far off in the run tally.
