Shafali Verma, an opener for the Delhi Capitals, has etched her name in the Women's Premier League history books. As of January 20, 2026, she is the second Indian player to achieve the remarkable feat of scoring over 1000 runs in the tournament. This significant milestone was reached during a WPL 2026 match against the Mumbai Indians, held at the Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara on Tuesday.

Meg Lanning, currently captaining the UP Warriorz, is also among the players who have accumulated over 1000 runs in the WPL.
