Rohit Kumar Paudel sits on top of the list for players with most runs in Nepal Premier League 2024 as the Lumbini Lions skipper stretched the lead by close to 100 runs during the team's first win of the season.
Rohit claimed the lead from Janakpur Bolts' Lahiru Milantha on Saturday (December 7) and has remained on top since then, but the Nepal batter has only been able to bring one win to his team in five attempts.

Apart from Milantha and Rohit, former India batter Shikhar Dhawan as well as the likes of Saif Zaib, Ravi Bopara and the lone centurion Andries Gous also feature in the top 10 leading run-getters chart. Here is a look at the current leaderboard for most runs in NPL Season 1 after 18 matches:
