Nothing is more eye-catching than a batter playing his shots to the utmost perfection and looking unstoppable. When in form, batters try to make the most of the occasion by scoring runs in bulk.
With ODI contests often shortened to 3-match events, with the inclusion of T20s in almost every bilateral tournament, it’s time to look at the records that focus on these specific events. You can find the same stats for the ODI series with any number of games.
This article will list the top ten batters who scored the most runs in the 3-match bilateral ODI series.

Babar Azam and Quinton de Kock are the only players to score 3 hundreds in a 3-match ODI series.
Shubman Gill scored a smashing 200 & 100 in the 2023 series against New Zealand. However, he was unbeaten in the other innings while chasing a low-scoring contest.
Martin Guptill’s 330 against England in 2013 is the highest score by a traveling batter in a 3-match ODI battle.
Guptill also has the best average among this top batting ten, as he was unbeaten in 2 of the 3 innings in that tour.
