Mumbai Indians’s historic title-winning campaign was a reality thanks to some fine batting displays from the side’s senior stars as the English all-rounder Natalie Sciver-Brunt finished as the orange cap holder after a historic campaign in the Women’s Premier League 2025.
The 32-year-old continues to dominate with the bat and set a new record for the most runs in a WPL season having scored 523 runs in 10 games at a strike-rate of 152.47 and an average of 65.37 as well. She was miles ahead of the next best batter, with a mammoth lead of 151 runs, showcasing her batting dominance.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s Ellyse Perry holds the second position after scoring 372 runs in 8 games with an average of 93 and a strike rate of 148.8. Despite her stellar campaign, the franchise was unable to go into the playoffs, finishing at fourth in the points table.
Mumbai Indians and West Indies all-rounder Hayley Matthews had a stellar campaign with the bat as well, scoring 307 runs in the 10 matches. She has given stellar starts with the bat at the top and played a key role in MI’s eliminator win over the Gujarat Giants in the playoff stages.
