List of players who have scored 2,000 or more runs in Women's Twenty20 International cricket

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For list of players in men's Twenty20 International cricket, see List of players who have scored 2,000 or more runs in Twenty20 International cricket.

Scoring more than 2,000 runs in T20I format of cricket is considered a significant achievement. In 2014, England batter Charlotte Edwards became the first woman to score 2,000 runs in Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I). Later in 2014, she also became the first player (either male or female) to cross 2500 runs.[1] She retired as the most prolific run scorer in WT20Is, with a total of 2605 runs in March 2016. She remained as the leading run-scorer (either male or female) for another 2 years until it was broken by Suzie Bates of New Zealand in June 2018, who later became the first player (either male or female) to score 3000, 3500 and 4000 runs in T20Is as well.[2][3]

In terms of innings, Australia's Beth Mooney is the fastest (67) to reach the 2,000 run mark, whereas Pakistan's Nida Dar is the slowest (136) to reach the mark.[4]

As of October 2024, 26 players from 10 teams have scored 2,000 runs in T20Is. Out of them, 5 players are from England and India each, followed by 4 from Australia, 3 each from Pakistan and West Indies, 2 from New Zealand, and 1 each from Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Ireland, and United Arab Emirates.

This list contains all the players who have scored 2,000 runs in T20I. By default the list is sorted in order of the day the feat is achieved. Overall career scores of these players will be updated on regular interval and not on daily basis.
