Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Babar Azam, and the India vs Pakistan match: three modern greats and the mother of all battles. We’re in for a spectacle on June 9 as India takes on Pakistan in a T20 World Cup game. Recently, Babar Azam made history by reaching 4000 T20I runs, becoming the first Pakistan batter to do so. He surpassed the modern master Virat Kohli, who, interestingly, was also the first Indian batter to achieve this milestone. In the ongoing World Cup, Rohit has also crossed the 4000-run mark. So, who can take the lead? Will we see Virat Kohli take the spot and sit as king, or will Rohit Sharma accelerate and take the top seat, or will Babar Azam be able to defend his top spot?
Three in the ring, but only one throne!
Babar Azam
Babar Azam has been pretty consistent, especially in the shorter format of the game. As mentioned, with 4067 runs, he is sitting at the top of the order. In the last few games, he was surely struggling to make big runs with a healthy strike rate. The Pakistan skipper has a good chance to score and be at the top.
Virat kohli
Virat Kohli is in the golden touch, as recently he won the orange cap in the IPL once again. The modern master has been doing wonders in the shorter format of the game, and there is high expectation from him for one more time. In 118 matches, he has scored 4038 runs with an average of 51.11. Since Babar Azam is leading the chart with 4067 runs, Kohli is a few more runs behind to tackle Azam’s score. It will be interesting to see if he can reclaim his spot once again or not.
Rohit Sharma
Known as the Hitman, Rohit Sharma has always been a big-ticket player. Recently, he crossed the 4000-run mark after hitting a half-century against Ireland, becoming the second Indian to reach this milestone. Since he bats at the top of the order and loves to utilize the powerplay overs, it will be a joy to watch if he claims the top spot. For now, Rohit has 4026 runs in 152 games.
