Babar Azam is targeting the world record, will leave Virat and Rohit behind!
- Babar Azam can create history before T20 World Cup
- Became the second batsman to score 4000 runs in T20I
- Virat Kohli is the highest run scorer in T20I
Pakistan cricket team is currently on England tour, where the team will play a series of 4 T20 matches. Which is starting from today. This series is considered very important in view of the T20 World Cup 2024. This is the series due to which many England players left the IPL midway and returned to their country. Meanwhile, if we talk about Pakistan captain Babar Azam, he will have a chance to break a big record.
Babar Azam can create history
Actually, Virat Kohli is the highest run-scorer in T20 International. He has scored 4037 runs in 117 matches. He is the only batsman in the world to score 4000 runs in this format. After this is Rohit Sharma, who has scored 3974 runs in 151 matches. At number three is Babar Azam who has scored 3955 runs in 117 matches so far.
Babar Azam will play against England today
When Babar Azam plays his first T20 match against England today, his first attempt will be to score 20 more runs and overtake Rohit Sharma to reach the second position. After this, he will also try to become the second batsman to score 4000 runs in T20I. For this, he needs only 45 more runs from here, which is not a big deal for him.
Babar can get very close to Kohli
Indian players are not playing T20I at the moment. They will now play this format directly in the T20 World Cup. But Babar Azam still has four matches left before the World Cup. If Babar Azam's bat performs well in two matches, he can overtake Rohit but will come very close to Virat Kohli and become the second batsman to score 4000 runs. That is, everyone's eyes will be on Babar in this series.
