T20 cricket all-time run-scoring record

Overview

The record for the most runs scored in T20 cricket history has undergone a shift between Kieron Pollard and Jos Buttler.

In late August 2026, West Indian all-rounder Kieron Pollard reclaimed the record while playing for the Trinbago Knight Riders in the Caribbean Premier League. By scoring 65 runs against the Saint Lucia Kings, Pollard reached a total of 14,921 runs, surpassing England’s Jos Buttler.

However, by mid-September 2026, Jos Buttler regained the top position during England’s T20I series against Sri Lanka. During the second match of that series, Buttler became the first player to reach the 15,000-run milestone in T20 cricket, overtaking Pollard to become the highest run-scorer in the format’s history.
