Follow UsEnglish all-rounder Nat Sciver-Brunt became the first player in Women’s Premier League (WPL) history to notch up 1000 runs on March 15 (Saturday). The all-rounder got to that milestone in the WPL 2025 final against Delhi Capitals, scoring the first three runs of her innings.
Prior to this season, the competition for 1000 WPL runs was between the Australian duo of Meg Lanning and Ellyse Perry, who were in prime position. While Lanning can still get there, on 939 runs after 27 appearances, it is not possible for Perry anymore in WPL 2025 after RCB crashed out of the competition in the group stage.

But come the 2025 season, she’s just taken off to a different level, smashing 496 runs while averaging a staggering 70.42.
