Facing Marco Jansen, Buttler launched the South African pacer for three successive sixes, with the first of those maximums taking him beyond Pollard&#8217;s record.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>The England wicketkeeper-batter now has 14,833 runs in 522 T20 matches, along with nine centuries and 105 fifties, overtaking Pollard&#8217;s 14,803 runs in 746 matches. Former West Indies opener Chris Gayle, long regarded as the format&#8217;s greatest batter, is now third on the list with 14,562 runs in 463 matches, including 22 centuries.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"14\"\/>Buttler capped off the milestone in style, smashing two more sixes off Lockie Ferguson before bringing up his half-century and sealing victory for Manchester Super Giants.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2><b>Most runs in T20s<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"cdatainfo   id-r-component \" data-pos=\"19\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td\/>\n<td>Matches<\/td>\n<td>Runs<\/td>\n<td>Ave.<\/td>\n<td>SR<\/td>\n<td>100s\/50s<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Jos Buttler<\/td>\n<td>522<\/td>\n<td>14833<\/td>\n<td>35.48<\/td>\n<td>147.24<\/td>\n<td>9\/106<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Kieron Pollard<\/td>\n<td>746<\/td>\n<td>14803<\/td>\n<td>31.76<\/td>\n<td>151.02<\/td>\n<td>2\/70<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Chris Gayle<\/td>\n<td>463<\/td>\n<td>14562<\/td>\n<td>36.22<\/td>\n<td>144.75<\/td>\n<td>22\/88<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Alex Hales<\/td>\n<td>528<\/td>\n<td>14449<\/td>\n<td>29.91<\/td>\n<td>144.51<\/td>\n<td>7\/92<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>David Warner<\/td>\n<td>439<\/td>\n<td>14284<\/td>\n<td>37.29<\/td>\n<td>140.77<\/td>\n<td>10\/118<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Seifert, Buttler flatten Welsh Fire<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>Chasing 156, Manchester Super Giants were in complete control from the outset.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>Tim Seifert led the early charge with a blistering unbeaten 62 off 36 balls, striking 10 boundaries, while opening partner Paul Walter chipped in with a rapid 37 from 18 deliveries. The pair laid the perfect platform before Buttler produced another trademark display of clean hitting to finish the contest.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>The victory also ended Manchester Super Giants&#8217; three-match losing streak in emphatic fashion.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/>Earlier, Welsh Fire posted 155\/4 after opting to bat first.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"31\"\/>Matt Short anchored the innings with a fluent 71 off 47 balls, hitting eight fours and two sixes, while Phil Salt contributed 48 from 37 deliveries in a 125-run opening partnership. However, the innings lost momentum after both openers departed in quick succession, with Gus Atkinson returning impressive figures of 2\/12 to restrict the visitors.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"34\"\/>The target proved well below par as Manchester Super Giants raced to 161\/1 in just 69 balls, underlining their batting firepower.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"37\"\/>For Buttler, though, the night belonged to history. Already one of the modern game&#8217;s most destructive white-ball batters, the England star now stands alone at the top of T20 cricket&#8217;s all-time run-scoring charts, adding another milestone to an illustrious career.<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/news\/jos-buttler-scripts-history-breaks-kieron-pollards-all-time-t20-run-record\/articleshow\/132981777.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW DELHI: England star Jos Buttler etched his name into cricket history on Wednesday, overtaking West Indies great Kieron Pollard to become the highest run-scorer in men&#8217;s T20 cricket during Manchester Super Giants&#8217;
