Babar Azam: Against Bangladesh in their group stage match, Babar Azam, the captain, broke Virat Kohli’s another record. The right-handed batsman scored 55 runs in 40 balls in the sixth Tri-Series game. With their opening partnership of 101 runs, Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan gave the team a strong start.
However, the important aspect that we are talking about is that Babar is now the fastest Asian player to score 11,000 international runs.

Babar Azam broke Virat Kohli’s record by 11 innings
It appears that Virat Kohli’s records are routinely broken by Babar Azam. Unlike Virat, who took 261 innings to reach 11,000 international runs, the 27-year-old did so in 251 innings. 3,122 runs have been scored by Babar in 75 innings of 42 Tests, 4664 runs in 90 innings of 92 ODIs, and 3216 runs in 86 innings of 91 T20Is.
Sunil Gavaskar, had previously held the record, which the brash batter has also surpassed; Gavaskar accomplished it in 262 innings. Pakistani legend Javed Miandad exceeded the 11,000-run threshold in In 266 innings.
In his 91st innings, the right-handed batsman scored their 29th T20I half-century, surpassing Rohit Sharma, who has 28 half-centuries to his name. Babar now ranks second among batters with the most fifty. The top player on the elite list is Virat Kohli, who has scored 33 half-centuries.
The Bangladesh Cricket Team, on the other hand, is looking into numerous issues. A lot of questions about the team’s preparation are raised by the fact that they were unable to win any games during the competition. Bangladesh’s fielding was quite shoddy; they frequently handed the batting team twos.
