Top 3 run-getters of WCL 2026 after the league stage

The World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2026 league stage concluded with three standout batters dominating the scoring charts. Jean-Paul Duminy led the tournament with 258 runs in four innings, maintaining an extraordinary average of 129.00 and striking rate of 174.32 for South Africa Champions.

His consistency proved pivotal as his team secured a semi-final spot against England Champions, set to face off on October 16 at Sharjah Cricket Stadium. AB de Villiers followed closely with 237 runs in just four innings, including a tournament-high century of 111 off 40 balls against Australia Champions.

His strike rate of 211.61 and average of 79.00 underscored his explosive yet calculated approach, while D'Arcy Short rounded out the top three with 225 runs in five innings, boasting the highest number of sixes (22) among the trio. Australia Champions will now challenge West Indies Champions in the second semi-final, with Short’s aggressive opener likely to remain a key weapon in the knockout stages.

The top four teams—Australia, South Africa, West Indies, and England—have advanced, setting the stage for high-stakes semi-finals on October 16, culminating in the final two days later.
