Pakistan’s cricket sensation, Babar Azam, is on the brink of a historic achievement in T20I cricket, aiming to overtake India’s Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in total runs scored. Currently, Babar stands just 215 runs away from surpassing these formidable opponents, with his tally of 3,823 runs placing him third on the all-time list
With an impressive tally of 3,823 runs in T20I cricket, Babar Azam currently occupies the third position on the all-time list of most runs in this thrilling format of the game.
The current standings for the most runs in T20I cricket are as follows:
- Virat Kohli: 4,037 runs (in 109 innings)
- Rohit Sharma: 3,974 runs (in 143 innings)
- Babar Azam: 3,823 runs (in 107 innings)
Pakistan’s upcoming series against Ireland and England, comprising a total of seven T20Is, presents a golden opportunity for Babar to ascend the ranks and claim the top spot.
A mere 151 runs would see him level with Rohit Sharma, while an additional 215 runs would catapult him beyond the prolific Virat Kohli.
In a testament to his prowess, Babar Azam led the Pakistani contingent as they departed for Dublin, Ireland, commencing their journey from Lahore via Dubai.
The Pakistan team is slated to engage in three T20Is in Ireland followed by a four-match series in England. Subsequently, they will set their sights on the United States to participate in the highly anticipated T20 World Cup 2024.
The squad, comprising 18 players, has been meticulously curated for the upcoming fixtures against Ireland and England. However, it will be streamlined to 15 players for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 following the initial encounter against England on May 22.
