T20 World Cup 2021: Most runs and wickets standings after England v Sri Lanka (updated)

T20 World Cup 2021 saw colossal movement in the leading run-scoring and wicket-taking charts on Monday, including the crowning of two new table leaders, as England thumped Sri Lanka by 26 runs to register their fourth consecutive win in the competition.

Jos Buttler hit a staggering century, 101 off 67 balls, to record T20 World Cup 2021's top score so far. The opening England batter bid his time when Sri Lanka reduced his team to 35-3 before unleashing his class against the old ball, hitting six boundaries and as many sixes in total. His effort led England to a healthy score of 163-4.

In the process, Buttler took his overall tally to 214 runs in the T20 World Cup, becoming the top-ranked batter in the run-scoring charts and plundering a 44-run lead over second-placed Pathum Nissanka.

Nissanka had a chance to take his spot back in the second innings when Sri Lanka started the chase. However, the right-hander was run out for just 1(1) in the first over, owing to a ludicrous mixup with his opening partner Kusal Perera.

The best batting effort in the chase came from star all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga (34 off 21) who had an equally good game as Buttler, but the Lankan ended up on the losing side as his team were all out for 137 in the 19th over.

Charith Asalanka and Bhanuka Rajapaksa, who have been regular features in the top-10, once again made gains in the table. Asalanka's 21-run knock took his overall tally to 163 and placed him behind Nissanka in third. Rajapaksa's 26 off 18, meanwhile, placed him in fourth spot with 155 runs.
