Having returned to form with a swashbuckling 50 against the Delhi Capitals in the IPL 2026 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Jos Buttler has crossed a massive landmark in the shortest format. The IPL 2026 clash against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Ekana International Stadium has seen the Englishman become the fifth batter to accumulate 14k runs in T20s and the third batter to have 100 half-centuries in his T20 career.

Who are the other batters with more than 14000 runs in T20 cricket?

Buttler, one of the best batters in the shortest format, had struggled in T20 World Cup 2026 and didn’t start in the desired manner in IPL 2026 either. However, the former England white-ball captain blasted a whirlwind half-century that provided the Titans with the much-needed impetus to what eventually proved to be a match-winning total.

Here is the list Jos Buttler has joined in T20 cricket

Player Runs
Chris Gayle 14562
Kieron Pollard 14482
Alex Hales 14449
David Warner 14121
Jos Buttler 14021

Who are the players aside from Jos Buttler to have more than 100 fifties?

Meanwhile, the Lancashire keeper-batter has joined David Warner (116) and Virat Kohli (106) for most fifties in T20 cricket.

How have the Gujarat Titans performed so far in IPL 2026?

Meanwhile, the Titans have performed decently in IPL 2026 so far. They suffered a convincing defeat to the Punjab Kings in Mullanpur, followed by a narrow defeat to the Rajasthan Royals at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. But they clinched a 1-run win in the humdinger of a clash against the Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley in Delhi.

As for the ongoing clash against the Super Giants, they bowled with discipline to limit the home side to 164/8 in 20 overs. The Super Giants failed to gather any real momentum in their innings as Aiden Makram was their top-scorer with 30, with the remaining batters chipping in with small contributions to lift their side to a competitive total. Prasidh Krishna returned with outstanding figures of 4-0-28-4 and now holds the purple cap.

At the time of writing this, the Titans had already won with eight balls and seven wickets to spare as Buttler top-scored with 60 off 36 balls.
