The batting table covers league matches, the Eliminator and the Final. Delhi's finalists played ten matches, RCB and Gujarat players could play nine, while Mumbai and UP Warriorz completed eight-match league-only campaigns.
Match counts therefore differ because of playoff qualification and player availability. Runs, not matches played, determine the order below.

Final scorecard boundary
What is included in these WPL statistics?
Individual totals include all 22 completed matches through the 5 February Final. The points table has a different scope because it stops after the 20 league matches; playoff performances count here but never add league points.
Official WPL season cards establish the cap holders, award leaders and competition totals. The complete top-ten tables are cross-checked against a dated statistical table rather than reconstructed from incomplete snippets or live innings.
