In an IPL 2026 match against Delhi Capitals at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on May 17, Yashasvi Jaiswal marked a significant milestone by scoring his 4000th run in T20 cricket. He managed to score 12 runs off 9 balls, hitting three fours before being dismissed by Lungi Ngidi. Jaiswal needed just three runs to reach the 4000-run club and opened his innings with a boundary off Mitchell Starc. With this achievement, he became the joint fourth fastest Indian to score 4000 runs in T20s, reaching the milestone in 129 innings, a feat he shares with Shubman Gill. The record for the fastest Indian to reach this mark is held by Ruturaj Gaikwad, who accomplished it in 116 innings, followed closely by KL Rahul and Tilak Varma. On the global stage, the record for the fastest player to score 4000 runs in T20s belongs to Chris Gayle, who achieved this in just 107 innings.
