WPL 2026 - Leading Run-Getters, Top Wicket-Takers, Table Standings
The Women's Premier League has begun in earnest. After 11 league games the league is tightly contested. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru sit pretty at the top with four wins out of four - three teams are tied at four points with the net run-rate being the differential. Who are the leading women in the primary departments and how does the points table look like?
WPL 2026 - Leading Run-Getters
UP Warriorz' Phoebe Litchfield is the leading run-getter in the league so far. The stylish left-hander has scored 211 runs at an average of 42.20 and has scored these runs at an impressive strike-rate of 162.30. Harmanpreet Kaur has garnered a couple of fifties, 71* & 74* and those are the only two games Mumbai Indians have won in the league so far.

Meg Lanning has scored 167 runs after five games but the former Aussie skipper hasn't really got going as far as strike-rate is concerned. Lizelle Lee for Delhi Capitals has come up with a couple of fine knocks but DC now find themselves at the bottom of the table. Smriti Mandhana scored 96 (61) in RCB's last game and she'll look to carry this form in to the knockouts. Who do you reckon will finish WPL 2026 as the leading run-getter?
WPL 2026 - Top Wicket-Takers
Amelia Kerr has been in tremendous form for the Mumbai Indians. The wily leggie has bagged 10 wickets picking up at least one wicket in every game she's played. Nandani Sharma has been a revelation for DC. The 24-year-old pacer has had an impressive start to her WPL career. 9 wickets for the girl from Chandigarh.

RCB have struck pole position because their bowlers have been phenomenal for them. Lauren Bell, Nadine de Klerk and Shreyanka Patil, all have bagged eight wickets each so far. How does the WPL 2026 points table look?
RCB have put themselves in a firm position with zero defeats and a healthy net run-rate. MI and Gujarat Giants are placed second and third respectively with UP Warriorz chasing them down with back-to-back wins. DC need to win all their remaining fixtures to stage a come back.
