WPL 2026: Meg Lanning Becomes Third Batter To Cross 1,000 Runs Mark
India Captain Harmanpreet Kaur: Former Australia cricketer and UP Warriorz captain Meg Lanning became the third cricketer in the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026 to cross the 1,000-run mark in the tournament in the seventh match against Delhi Capitals at the Dr. DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai.
Lanning is now part of an elite group with her landmark achievement, along with England's Nat Sciver-Brunt and India Captain Harmanpreet Kaur, as these three batters have been the definition of greatness in terms of consistency, impact, and success during the brief but amazing history of WPL (Women's Premier League).
Lanning's total of runs (1,050) ranks her amongst the top scorers ever in WPL, with only Sciver-Brunt (1,101) above her and Harmanpreet (1,016) closely trailing behind. Australia's Ellyse Perry(972) and Shafali Verma (887) make up the top five, showing the level of play and talent WPL is becoming known for shortly after its inception.
