Babar Azam has added a new feather to his cap. The Pakistan Cricket Team skipper Babar Azam has now become the second cricketer to amass 4000 runs in T20I cricket. He has now become the second man in the history of the sport to achieve this record. The first man to do so was India’s ace batter Virat Kohli.

Not just Babar Azam who is eager to topple Virat Kohli to take the crown. Indian skipper Rohit Sharma is also there in the hunt. Currently, Babar tails Kohli by 14 runs in the highest runs scored by any batter in T20I cricket.
India skipper Rohit Sharma is also close and is just one big knock away from shattering the 4000 run barrier. Rohit is just 26 runs short of reaching 4000 T20I runs.
It will be interesting to see how the trio ace batters fight against each other to take the top spot.
