Super50 Cup 2024-25: Top 5 Run-Scorers – Jangoo, Greaves
The Super50 Cup 2024-25, West Indies’ premier 50-over domestic tournament, has delivered a masterclass in white-ball batting, with Trinidad & Tobago’s Amir Jangoo leading the charge in a season of high averages, unbeaten knocks, and clutch hundreds. As the dust settles on the group stage, here are the top 5 run-scorers who defined the competition with consistency, power, and poise under pressure.
1. Amir Jangoo (Trinidad & Tobago) – 446 runs @ 89.20
- Matches: 7 | Innings: 7 | NO: 2
- HS: 111 | 100s: 1 | 50s: 3
- SR: 86.77 | 4s: 33 | 6s: 9
The Trinidad & Tobago wicketkeeper-batter has been the standout performer of the tournament. With an average nearing 90, Jangoo anchored T&T’s campaign with three fifties and a century. His 111 vs Guyana was a lesson in pacing a chase, while his unbeaten 94 vs Combined Campuses* sealed a thriller. A left-hander with silky timing, Jangoo’s ability to rotate strike (514 balls faced) and accelerate when needed makes him the most reliable batter in the Super50.
2. Justin Greaves (Leeward Islands) – 401 runs @ 133.66
- Matches: 5 | Innings: 5 | NO: 2
- HS: 151* | 100s: 3 | 50s: 0
- SR: 98.04 | 4s: 34 | 6s: 2
Three centuries in five innings—that’s the stuff of legends. Greaves carried Leeward Islands on his back with back-to-back hundreds, including an unbeaten 151 vs Windward Islands*. His average of 133.66 is the highest among the top scorers, and despite a duck in one knock, his consistency under pressure was unmatched. A classical accumulator with a solid technique, Greaves proved why he’s on the cusp of West Indies selection.
3. Leniko Boucher (Barbados) – 351 runs @ 50.14
- Matches: 7 | Innings: 7 | NO: 0
- HS: 81 | 100s: 0 | 50s: 4
- SR: 91.88 | 4s: 41 | 6s: 5
The Barbados opener was the epitome of consistency, scoring four fifties without a century. Boucher’s 41 boundaries show his dominance through the covers and point, while his strike rate of 91.88 kept the scoreboard ticking. No not-outs, yet an average above 50—pure class. His 81 vs Jamaica set up a crucial win, making him Barbados’ batting backbone.
4. Sunil Ambris (Windward Islands) – 289 runs @ 48.16
- Matches: 7 | Innings: 7 | NO: 1
- HS: 70* | 100s: 0 | 50s: 3
- SR: 93.83 | 4s: 30 | 6s: 2
The Windward Islands veteran returned to form with three fifties, including an unbeaten 70* in a tense chase. Ambris, known for his elegance, played the anchor role to perfection, facing 308 balls—the third-most in the top 5. His experience guided younger partners, and his strike rate near 94 ensured momentum never dipped.
5. Kjorn Ottley (Trinidad & Tobago) – 289 runs @ 57.80
- Matches: 7 | Innings: 7 | NO: 2
- HS: 112* | 100s: 1 | 50s: 1
- SR: 66.43 | 4s: 25 | 6s: 4
Tied with Ambris on runs but with a higher average, Ottley was T&T’s Mr. Reliable. His unbeaten 112 vs CCC* was a masterclass in building an innings, facing 435 balls—the most by any batter. While his strike rate was the lowest among the top 5, his role as a sheet anchor allowed Jangoo and others to play around him.
