Babar Azam: Another record in the name of Babar Azam, which Virat-Rohit could not even do together this year.

Pakistan’s captain Babar Azam is counted among the top batsmen of today’s era. Even though he could not perform anything special in the T20 World Cup 2022, his team made it to the finals. Babar is now leading his team in Tests. He scored a century in the first Test match of the series against England and returned to form. Babar has also made a record after this century in Rawalpindi. This year, he did that work that even veterans like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli could not do together.

In the year 2022, 28-year-old Babar Azam scored his 7th century in international cricket i.e. all three formats. No batsman has scored more centuries than him this year. Babar is often compared to Virat Kohli and Indian captain Rohit Sharma. Talking about Rohit, he has not been able to score a single century this year. At the same time, Virat Kohli scored a century which he scored in the T20 format against Afghanistan in Asia Cup. In this way, Babar is far ahead of these two legends of India in terms of centuries.
