Nat Sciver-Brunt sets unmatched batting milestone
Nat Sciver-Brunt becomes the first player to score 1,000 runs in both The Hundred and Women’s Premier League, topping all-time run charts in both tournaments with record-breaking consistency.

Nat Sciver-Brunt has achieved a rare double in franchise cricket, becoming the first player, male or female, to score 1,000 runs in The Hundred and also the first to reach 1,000 runs in the Women’s Premier League (WPL). Her landmark in The Hundred came during the 2025 season for Trent Rockets, when she crossed the four-figure mark to finish as the tournament’s all-time leading scorer.
Most Runs – Women’s Hundred
Player | Runs |
---|---|
Nat Sciver-Brunt | 1,031 |
Danielle Wyatt-Hodge | 939 |
Laura Wolvaardt | 871 |
Sophia Dunkley | 852 |
Tammy Beaumont | 767 |
Sciver-Brunt’s record in The Hundred is built on consistent match-winning performances, powerful stroke play, and an ability to score quickly without compromising on stability. She stands well ahead of her nearest rival, underlining her dominance in the format.
In the Women’s Premier League, Sciver-Brunt has been just as unstoppable for the Mumbai Indians. On March 15, 2025, during the WPL Final against Delhi Capitals, she became the first to cross 1,000 career runs in the league’s short history.
That milestone was part of a remarkable 2025 season where she scored 523 runs, becoming the first player to pass 500 runs in a single WPL season. She ended the year as both Orange Cap winner and Most Valuable Player.

Whether it’s the explosive atmosphere of The Hundred in England or the high-stakes clashes of the WPL in India, Nat Sciver-Brunt has proven herself the gold standard for batting excellence in women’s cricket.
