Since its inception in 2008, the Indian Premier League (IPL) has been the finest T20 league in the world. Every year, top cricketers from all around the world travel to India to demonstrate their talent, and a select handful become global sensations Many players have performed admirably for their respective franchises during the 15 editions of the cash-rich event.

Let us take a look at the 3 players with the most runs for a single T20 franchise

Rohit Sharma

The skipper of the most successful IPL franchise Mumbai Indians is also the team’s leading run-scorer. Having played 191 matches between 2011 to 2022, Sharma has amassed 4982 runs for the team. He had a dismal run in the IPL 2022, but given his experience, he will be back in form next year to cross the 5000-runs mark and continue leading the side.

Suresh Raina

MS Dhoni’s protégé, Raina has been one of the finest players to play for the Chennai Super Kings. It came as a shock when the team did not pick him in the suction this year as he went unsold, but his contributions to the team have been incomparable. He was consistent with the bat throughout the years and provided the side with stability. Raina has 4687 runs from 176 matches that he has played for the Yellow Army, including 33 half-centuries and a ton.

Virat Kohli

The former RCB skipper has been one of the key players of the team since the league’s inception. Being with the side since day one, he has knocked 7016 runs for the franchise. He crossed the 7000-figure mark while playing against the Gujarat Titans in RCB’s final league match of IPL 2022. Notably, the star-studded batter is also the highest run-scorer in the history of the tournament.
