The third edition of the Asian Cricket Council’s (ACC) T20 Asia Cup will commence on September 9. Although the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is the host of the 8-nation tournament, the Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) is hosting the event.
The decision was taken after the BCCI and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) agreed to play ACC and International Cricket Council (ICC) matches at neutral venues. But the buzz will be the same, especially for the India vs Pakistan clash. With just a few left before the tournament kicks off, let’s take a look at the highest run scorers by batters in the history of the Asia Cup.
Most runs scored in Asia Cup (T20Is)
Three of the five highest run-getters won’t be playing in the 2025 edition of the Asia Cup. India’s Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma both retired after the 2024 T20 World Cup, while Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan hasn’t been selected. Hong Kong’s Babar Hayat and Afghanistan’s Ibrahim Zadran will feature in the tournament. Breaking Kohli’s record will be extremely difficult but Zadran has a shot at it.

Unlike the T20, we have had 14 editions of the ODI Asia Cup. Until 2016, the tournament was played only in the 50-over format. That’s why all of the highest run-getters started playing in the 1990s and 2000s. Rohit Sharma is the only active player in the list and can break Sanath Jayasuriya’s record if he continues to play until the next ODI Asia Cup, which will likely be played in 2027.
