Rajasthan Royals’ top run scorers in IPL 2026 - in numbers

Rajasthan Royals made a formidable start to their IPL 2026 campaign, winning the first four matches in brilliant fashion.

A stacked batting line-up, firing on all cylinders, has been central to the Royals’ inspired run this season.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has been RR’s top run-scorer in IPL 2026 so far, accumulating 200 runs in five matches at an average of 40 and an astonishing strike rate of over 250.

The 15-year-old southpaw has already slammed two 15-ball fifties this season - the third-fastest in IPL history - against Chennai Super Kings and defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

Sooryavanshi’s opening partner, Yashasvi Jaiswal, hasn’t been far behind, having already accumulated 184 runs this season, including two fifties of his own.

Jaiswal, who finished as RR’s top run getter last season, boasts an average of over 61 and a strike rate exceeding 150.

Dhruv Jurel has also showcased good form this season. The wicket-keeper batter has already bettered his highest IPL score twice this season and has scored 176 runs in five games at an average exceeding 40 and a strike rate of over 170.

Jos Buttler’s Orange Cap-winning 863-run haul in IPL 2022 remains the highest ever by a Rajasthan Royals batter in a single season. Meanwhile, Yashasvi Jaiswal’s 625 runs in IPL 2023 stand as the highest tally by an uncapped Royals player in a season.

At the top of the all-time charts, Virat Kohli’s record-breaking 973 runs in IPL 2016 still remains unmatched.

The highest score by a Rajasthan Royals player in IPL 2026, meanwhile, is Dhruv Jurel’s unbeaten 81 off 43 balls against RCB at the ACA Stadium in Guwahati.

It was Jurel’s highest IPL and T20 score, eclipsing the 75 he scored against Gujarat Titans earlier in the season.

Jurel smashed eight fours and three sixes in the knock to help the Royals chase down a 200+ score against the defending champions. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi also scored 78 in just 26 deliveries in the match.

Former RR man Sanju Samson’s century for CSK vs DC is the highest individual score in IPL 2026.

RR players have managed five fifty-plus scores this season so far.
