WPL 2026: Lanning Goes Past Perry To Become Second-highest Run-getter
DY Patil Stadium: UP Warriorz skipper Meg Lanning went past Ellyse Perry’s tally of 972 runs to become the second-highest run-scorer in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) when she took on Gujarat Giants in the second match of the tournament here at the DY Patil Stadium on Saturday.
Lanning, after her 27-ball 30-run knock, tallies 981 and is just 50 runs short of Mumbai Indians all-rounder Nat Sciver-Brunt’s tally, who leads the chart with 1031 runs (after Match 1 of WPL 2026).
Sciver-Brunt is the only player in the tournament with 1000+ runs to her name, thanks to a brilliant 2025 campaign that saw her script history. The England skipper, during MI’s victorious WPL 2025 campaign, became the first and only cricketer to score 500+ runs in a single season so far.
