Champions Trophy: No Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli in top 10 run-scorers; Here is the full list

Champions Trophy 2025 has seen several incredible knocks across the nine seasons. The top run-scorers in the tournament include some of the sport's legends and some unlikely names feature either.

While legends like Sachin Tendulkar and AB de Villiers do not feature in top 10 highest run getters in the tournament, modern-day Indian great Virat Kohli is only seven runs from making the list. He also has the highest average of 88 for a batter with more than 500 runs.



With the tournament being short with no more than five matches for a team who qualifies for the final, no one has breached the 1,000-run mark. West Indies legend Chris Gayle leads the charts with 791 runs and is followed by Sri Lankan great Mahela Jayawardene with 742 runs and Shikhar Dhawan, who has 701 runs. These are the only three batters to have breached 700 runs in Champions Trophy.
