Vince was now three runs ahead of Kohli on the list of captains with the most runs in T20 cricket, and with a couple of matches remaining before the knockouts in the Blast, the T20 veteran will be keen to surpass du Plessis and gain the No.1 spot. Vince has been terrific in the ongoing Blast, scoring 436 runs in 13 innings and would hope that it takes Hampshire close to a podium place this time around again.
Most runs as captain in T20 cricket
- 6634 - Faf du Plessis (in 203 innings)
- 6567 - James Vince (in 210 innings)
- 6564 - Virat Kohli (in 188 innings)
- 6283 - MS Dhoni (in 289 innings)
- 6064 - Rohit Sharma (in 224 innings)
Kohli, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma - the three stalwarts of Indian cricket not just in T20 cricket but across all formats as captains, now acquire the No. 3, 4 and 5 spots. While Kohli and Rohit are unlikely to add any runs to that list, Dhoni, who led the Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2025, could still add to his tally.
The win against Sussex on Sunday helped the Hawks rise to the third spot on the table, but they will have to play the remaining games without their omnipresent all-rounder Liam Dawson, who earned a Test recall ahead of the fourth game against India.
