Babar Azam Pakistan Cricket Team: Babar Azam has been the pivot of the batting order of the Pakistan cricket team since his debut. He has pulled the Pakistani team out of many difficult situations. Due to his good performance, Babar is often compared to India’s superstar batsman Virat Kohli. In terms of statistics, Virat is far ahead of Pakistan’s Babar. But there is one record that both Rohit and Virat have not been able to make yet.

Babar has a chance to score three thousand runs in WTC

The Pakistani team has to play a Test series against England and Bangladesh in the coming times. Pakistan will play two Tests against Bangladesh and three Tests against England. In both these Test series, Babar Azam has a chance to complete 3000 runs in the World Test Championship. He has so far scored 2661 runs in the history of WTC, which includes 7 centuries and 15 half-centuries.

Now if Babar scores 339 more runs in the upcoming 5 Test matches, he will complete his three thousand runs in the World Test Championship. He will become the first Asian cricketer to score 3000 runs in WTC. Before him, no Asian cricketer has been able to score three thousand runs in the World Test Championship. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have also not been able to do so. Rohit has scored 2552 runs and Virat has scored 2235 runs in the World Test Championship.

Joe Root has scored the most runs

So far, only four batsmen have been able to score more than three thousand runs in the history of the World Test Championship. These include Joe Root, Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, and Ben Stokes. At the same time, England’s Joe Root is the highest run scorer. He has scored 4598 runs in 55 WTC matches, which includes 14 centuries.
