IPL Orange Cap 2025
Most Runs in IPL 2025 ( 09 May 2025 ): Suryakumar Yadav is leading lthe race for the IPL Orange Cap with 510 runs. He is being hotly chased by Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and Virat Kohli, all within a whisker of the lead. Jos Buttler is not far behind either, boasting the highest average among the top ten. Prabhsimran Singh and Yashasvi Jaiswal have been standouts for their sides, while young Priyansh Arya has taken the league by storm with a century and a strike rate nearing 200.
Nicholas Pooran and Shreyas Iyer round off the elite list, delivering consistently in crunch moments. With so little separating these stars, the race for the Orange Cap could come down to the final over of the group stage. Power-packed knocks, blistering strike rates, and consistent form have defined this season's top batters. What makes this race even more exciting is how evenly matched these players are, with barely a 100-run gap between the top 10. With only a few games left, one big innings could change the leaderboard and the eventual Orange Cap winner.
1. Suryakumar Yadav – 510 runs
Mumbai Indians' ace batter has combined flair with consistency, scoring 510 runs in 12 matches at an average of 63.75. His strike rate of 170.56 makes him one of the most dangerous middle-order players this season. While he hasn’t scored a century yet, his aggressive innings have anchored MI's resurgence.
2. Sai Sudharsan – 509 runs
The Gujarat Titans opener has emerged as a revelation this season. With 509 runs at a strike rate of 153.31, Sai Sudharsan has been instrumental in giving GT strong starts. His five fifties show remarkable consistency despite having no not-outs to boost his average.
3. Shubman Gill – 508 runs
Another GT star, Gill has been elegant yet lethal. Scoring 508 runs with a healthy average of 50.80 and a strike rate of 152.55, he’s a key cog in Gujarat's top order. He’s timed his innings to perfection, playing the anchor when needed and accelerating brilliantly.
4. Virat Kohli – 505 runs
The RCB legend is in vintage form, racking up 505 runs in 11 innings with an average of 63.13. With 7 half-centuries, Kohli has been the rock for Bengaluru. His strike rate of 143.46 may not be the highest, but his presence stabilizes the innings every time.
5. Jos Buttler – 500 runs
Buttler has been explosive for Gujarat Titans, with 500 runs at a phenomenal average of 71.43. His strike rate of 163.93 and four not-outs reflect how often he has finished games. A highest score of 97* shows he’s come close to that elusive hundred multiple times.
6. Prabhsimran Singh – 487 runs
Punjab Kings’ aggressive opener has made a big impact, scoring 487 runs with a blazing strike rate of 170.87. His fearless approach in the powerplay has often given PBKS the upper hand early on. With five fifties, he’s been a reliable force at the top.
7. Yashasvi Jaiswal – 473 runs
Even though Rajasthan Royals has struggled, Jaiswal has been one of the bright spots. Scoring 473 runs at an average of 43.00, he’s been consistent at the top. His strokeplay and fearless intent have stood out, particularly in an otherwise dull RR campaign.
8. Priyansh Arya – 417 runs
The young PBKS batter has impressed everyone with his explosive strike rate of 194.85—one of the highest this season. His 103-run knock made headlines, and he has already smashed 28 sixes in 12 games. A future star in the making.
9. Nicholas Pooran – 410 runs
LSG’s powerhouse hitter has entertained with a blistering strike rate of 200.98. Scoring 410 runs with four half-centuries, he’s been crucial in late-innings acceleration. Pooran has cleared the boundary 34 times, showcasing his game-changing ability in death overs.
10. Shreyas Iyer – 405 runs
Shreyas Iyer has been a silent performer for Punjab Kings, accumulating 405 runs at an average of 50.63. With a strike rate of 180.80, he’s anchored innings and finished games effectively. His 97* was a masterclass in controlled aggression.
