West Indies captain Shai Hope has climbed to the top of the international run charts for 2025, overtaking India’s Shubman Gill after a composed 48-run knock during the ongoing Test series. The innings pushed Hope’s aggregate to 1,749 runs in 47 innings across formats, making him the most prolific batter of the year so far.

Gill, who had led the charts for most of the season, now sits in second place with 1,736 runs in 40 innings, slipping just behind the in-form West Indies star.
