Pakistan team captain Babar Azam fell shy of a fourth straight consecutive ODI win in the second match against West Indies, but it did not stop him from reaching another massive feat in men’s international cricket history.
The right-arm batter breaks a record almost every appearance, and with this knock of 77 off 93 balls, he scored yet another fifty-plus, etching his name in the record books for a massive batting record.
This was Babar’s ninth fifty-plus score in men’s international cricket, the longest streak of any batter, which began with a 196 against Australia in the second Test of the series at National Stadium in Karachi.
After a two-month gap in international cricket, the all-format captain smashed a match-winning knock of 103 in the first ODI and then scored 77 off 93 balls in the second ODI against West Indies.
