Virat Kohli is also on the fourth in the list of the leading run-scorers in the ongoing tournament. He has 217 runs scored in four innings. The top spot is held by England opener Ben Duckett with 227 runs in three innings.

Other players in the list are Rachin Ravindra (226 runs), Tom Latham(191 runs), Kane Williamson (189 runs), Will Young (150 runs), and India’s Shreyas Iyer (195 runs).
