Top 10 Batters With Most Runs In ICC T20 World Cup 2024
T20 World Cup 2024 brought joy and ecstasy to millions of cricket fans in India as the Men in Blue claimed the T20 title by defeating South Africa in the tournament’s showdown. India ended the 17-year T20 trophy drought with its thrilling finale victory. There was no clear match-winner for the Indian side, and each player contributed every ounce of theirs in the final to come out victorious.
South Africa’s Heinrich Klaasen made the victory look easy for his team as the right-handed batter smashed Indian bowlers all over the park to close the chase gap. At one time, it was looking like an easy victory for the Proteas, but with his dismissal, the hopes were reignited, and Indian bowlers put the pressure back on the opponent’s batters to claim a win by seven runs. Virat Kohli scored 76 runs in the final and earned the POTM award, putting a blissful end to his T20 World Cup 2024 journey. The right-handed batter had a forgetful run in the tournament with the bat before the final, but he overcame all that with his remarkable performance in the final. Meanwhile, some batters scored runs throughout the tournaments for their teams, and here is the list of top 10 batters who scored most runs in the T20 World Cup 2024.

Rahmanullah Gurbaz came on top of the list of the batters with the most runs in the T20 World Cup 2024 as the wicket-keeper batter scored 281 runs in the eight innings in the tournament.

Rohit Sharma is in the second position on this list with 257 runs; he was the supreme contender to surpass Rahmanullah Gurbaz but couldn’t do so as he only scored 9 runs in the tournament’s finale to remain at 257 runs.
