The shortest format of the game is the most beloved version of cricket, which is watched by millions across the globe.

Chris Gayle is one batsman, who is an open enemy to bowlers and is the leading run scorer in this format of the game. He recently created a milestone which won’t be easy for anyone to match in the future. The left hand batsman is the first player to score ten thousand runs in this format of the game. Here is the list of batsmen with most T20 runs.

He has an unbelievable 18 T20 centuries to his name, with five of them coming in the Indian Premier League. The 37-year-old plays for a number of franchises across the world including the St Kitts and Nevis Patriot, Royal Challengers, Jamaica Tallawahs, Melbourne Renegades, Chittagong Vikings, Karachi Kings and last season featured for Somerset in the NatWest T20 Blast.
