Prabhsimran and Iyer within touching distance of Kohli & Co on IPL 2026 Orange Cap table

Here's how things look on the Orange and Purple Cap tables at IPL 2026 at the conclusion of Match No. 24

The top of the Orange and Purple Cap tables at IPL 2026 are largely unchanged, but there are players moving up and starting to threaten the current leaders. Here's how things stand after Match No. 24, where Punjab Kings (PBKS) made light of five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI).

Orange Cap leaderboard

The two best batters for PBKS in their dominant win over MI were Prabhsimran Singh, who hit an unbeaten 80 off 39 balls, and Shreyas Iyer, the captain, who scored 66 in 35 balls. As a result, Prabhsimran is now at No. 5 on the table led by Virat Kohli of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), with Heinrich Klaasen of Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), RCB's Rajat Patidar and SRH's Ishan Kishan between them.

Both Prabhsimran and Iyer have been crucial for PBKS so far this tournament with their consistent run-making. Prabhsimran, the opener, has scores of 37, 43, 51 and 80 not out to tally 211 runs from four innings at a strike rate of 172.95, while Iyer has so far hit 18, 50, 69 not out and 66 to accumulate 203 runs, and is at No. 6 on the table.

Rajasthan Royals' (RR) Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, the table-topper not long ago, has slipped to seventh place after his duck against SRH earlier in the week.

Purple Cap leaderboard

The top wicket-takers' table is unchanged all the way from No. 1 to No. 9, but MI's Shardul Thakur, courtesy the wicket of Iyer on Thursday, has entered the top ten. He is at No. 10 with six wickets, the same as RCB's Jacob Duffy and Vaibhav Arora of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).

The table is led by Prasidh Krishna of Gujarat Titans (GT) and Anshul Kamboj of Chennai Super Kings (CSK), both with ten wickets, followed by Prince Yadav and Ravi Bishnoi, of Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and RR respectively, who have nine wickets apiece. Below them with seven wickets each are RR's Jofra Archer, and the RCB duo of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Krunal Pandya.
