IPL 2024 Orange Cap update: Virat Kohli extends lead on top after knock vs RR in Eliminator

Post At: May 23/2024 12:10AM

IPL 2024 Orange Cap Holder: Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s Virat Kohli extended his lead at the top of the run-scoring chart as he notched 33 against the Rajasthan Royals on Wednesday in the IPL 2024 Eliminator. The former RCB skipper currently has 741 runs to his name from 15 outings.

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s swashbuckling opener Travis Head didn’t last much long during their Qualifier 1 against the Kolkata Knight Riders and was cleaned up by Mitchell Starc off the second delivery. Being dismissed without troubling the scorecard means Head remains third in the IPL 2024 run scoring tally behind Virat Kohli and Ruturaj Gaikwad.

Also among the top run scorers is Gujarat Titans’ Sai Sudharsan, who notched 527 runs this season, and RR’s Riyan Parag, who has 531 runs from 12 innings.
