Who Has the Most Runs in The Hundred? Full List
Phil Salt has faced 744 balls across five editions of The Hundred and turned them into 1,138 runs, more than any other batter in the competition’s history. On the women’s side, Nat Sciver-Brunt has been just as relentless, piling up 1,223 runs for Trent Rockets since the tournament began in 2021. Here is the full breakdown of who has the most runs in The Hundred, how the all-time leading run-scorers list actually stacks up, and what separates the players at the very top.
Who Has the Most Runs in The Hundred Right Now?
Phil Salt sits at the top of the men’s all-time run-scorers list with 1,138 runs from 43 matches, all scored while opening the batting first for Manchester Originals. He captained the side in 2024 and 2025 and built his tally at a strike rate of 152.95, striking 51 sixes along the way. James Vince, the Southern Brave captain, sits just 55 runs behind him with 1,083.
In the women’s competition, Nat Sciver-Brunt has scored more runs than anyone else in the format’s short history. Her 1,223 runs have come across 37 matches for Trent Rockets, and she has committed to a sixth straight season with the club heading into 2026, which means the gap at the top is only likely to grow before anyone else can close it.
Men’s All-Time Leading Run-Scorers List
Five batters have now crossed 1,000 career runs in The Hundred, and every name in this top 10 has played at least 29 matches. Here is the full list of the most runs in The Hundred men’s competition across all five completed editions.
- Phil Salt, 1,138 runs, 43 matches, HS 86, average 27.09 , strike rate 152.95
- James Vince, 1,083 runs, 44 matches, HS 90 , average 29.27, strike rate 136.91
- Will Jacks, 1,065 runs, 42 matches, HS 108 , average 26.62, strike rate 160.15
- Dawid Malan, 1,019 runs, 40 matches, HS 98 , average 29.97, strike rate 130.30
- Ben Duckett, 1,014 runs, 38 matches, HS 92 , average 31.68, strike rate 141.22
- Liam Livingstone, 996 runs, 38 matches, HS 92, average 34.34, strike rate 148.87
- Jordan Cox, 940 runs, 29 matches, HS 86 , average 49.47, strike rate 154.09

- Tom Banton, 792 runs, 40 matches, HS 81 , average 20.84, strike rate 132.22
Phil Salt and the Chasing Pack
Salt’s lead at the top of the men’s all-time run-scorers list is not enormous, and that is what makes this list worth watching every season. James Vince has played more matches than anyone else in this group, 44 in total, and his tally reflects a batter who converts starts into useful totals rather than chasing highlight-reel innings. Will Jacks brings the most explosive numbers in the group, with a strike rate of 160.15 and the single highest individual score ever recorded in the competition.
The Efficiency Argument
Raw totals do not tell the whole story. Jordan Cox has scored 940 runs from only 29 matches, and his average of 49.47 is easily the best figure among the top 10, well clear of anyone else on the list. Think of it a bit like comparing a marathon runner’s total distance covered against their pace per mile. Salt has covered more ground, but Cox has covered his in the fewest strides, and that efficiency is exactly why selectors keep picking him.
Women’s All-Time Leading Run-Scorers List
The women’s competition has produced a slightly different shape at the top, with one name pulling clear of the field. Nat Sciver-Brunt overtook Danni Wyatt during the 2024 season and has not looked back since, extending her lead with a run of 60 not out that broke the record outright.
Sciver-Brunt’s 1,223 runs have come with 10 half-centuries and 20 sixes, a figure that ties her for the most in the competition’s history despite playing 11 fewer matches than the player she shares that record with. Her batting average of 45.29 sits comfortably above most of the chasing pack. Danni Wyatt ranks second on the all-time list with 1,146 runs from 43 innings, backed by nine fifties of her own and a highest score of 69 not out. Sophia Dunkley also features prominently among the competition’s most consistent batters, with seven career fifties to her name across five editions.
What Separates the Top of the List
Longevity matters enormously in a 100-ball format where a single rain-shortened match can end an innings after a handful of deliveries. Every batter at the top of the men’s all-time run-scorers list has played in every edition of the competition since 2021, which means their totals reflect five full seasons of opportunity rather than one standout year.
Strike rate separates the merely good from the genuinely dangerous. Harry Brook’s 162.52 is the fastest of anyone in the men’s top 10, and it explains why he remains one of the format’s most feared middle-order hitters despite ranking ninth on the overall runs list. Liam Livingstone offers the clearest example of power over patience, with 71 sixes from just 36 innings, comfortably the most of any batter in the competition’s history.
Highest Individual Scores: The Centuries Club
Centuries remain rare in The Hundred, which makes them worth calling out on their own. Will Jacks holds the record for the highest individual score with an unbeaten 108 for Oval Invincibles in 2022, still the only fifty-plus score in this list to clear three figures by such a margin. Harry Brook’s 105 not out for Northern Superchargers came the following year, and Will Smeed’s unbeaten 101 for Birmingham Phoenix, also struck in 2022, was the first century the format ever produced.
In the women’s competition, Tammy Beaumont holds the equivalent record with 118 for Welsh Fire against Trent Rockets in 2023, a knock that came off just 61 balls and remains the only century scored in the women’s edition of the tournament to date.
Records Likely to Fall in the Coming Seasons
The gap between Phil Salt and James Vince at the top of the men’s list is close enough that a strong 2026 season could see the lead change hands. Jordan Cox, still the youngest player in the men’s top 10 by output, is scoring so efficiently that a couple more full seasons could push him past several names ahead of him on the all-time list.
On the women’s side, Sciver-Brunt’s return to Trent Rockets for a sixth straight campaign suggests her record is not going anywhere soon, though emerging batters like Phoebe Litchfield and Davina Perrin have already shown the kind of single-season output that could eventually put them in the conversation.
