Top 10: Most 50+ Scores in WPL History

We rarely get to see a big score (a 100-plus score) from a batter in the T20 format, and when it comes to the women’s game, it is even more infrequent. But there are batters who score impactful runs for their respective sides, either by playing till the end or scoring quick-fire runs.

The WPL competition is no different, and we have seen several notable match-winning batting performances from the batters in the league’s short history. As mentioned, a vital 50-plus knock by a top- or middle-order batter will take the side forward in the game.

So let’s see which players have created the maximum impact in terms of scoring half-centuries more times. Here are the top 10 batters with the most 50-plus scores in WPL history.
