Virat Kohli Rohit Sharma Babar Azam: T20 World Cup is starting from June 1. Apart from India and Pakistan, 18 other teams are also participating in this. India and Pakistan may not play each other in series anymore, but they face each other in ICC tournaments. This year, the clash between these two teams will take place on June 9. Meanwhile, before the T20 World Cup, Pakistan cricket team captain Babar Azam has a golden opportunity where he can surpass Indian captain Rohit Sharma and former captain Virat Kohli. But will they be able to do this is a big question.
Virat Kohli is the batsman who has scored the most runs in T20 International.
Actually, the batsman who has scored the most runs in T20 International cricket is Virat Kohli. So far, he has scored 4037 runs in 109 innings of 117 matches. He is the only batsman in the world who has scored more than four thousand runs in this format. After this comes Rohit Sharma’s turn. Rohit Sharma has now scored 3974 runs in 143 innings of 151 matches in T20 International.
Babar Azam is at number three in this list
Now let’s talk about Babar Azam. The Pakistan captain has so far scored 3823 runs in 107 innings of 114 matches in T20 cricket. He is the third highest run scorer in this format. Now listen to the equation. If Babar Azam wants to beat Rohit Sharma, he will need only 152 more runs, whereas to beat Virat Kohli, he needs 215 runs, which is not a big deal for a batsman like Babar Azam.
Babar Azam will get 7 matches
The interesting thing is that before the T20 World Cup 2024, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will not play a single international match, but Babar Azam will have a chance. Pakistan team is now on the tour of Ireland, where a series of three T20 matches is to be played. After this series, the team is going on a tour of England, where it has to play a series of four T20 International matches. That means they will have a total of 7 matches before the World Cup, but Rohit and Kohli will not play any international match. Both these batsmen will play for the international match on May 5, when India’s match will be played against Ireland in the T20 World Cup. That means Babar Azam has a chance to come out on top in seven matches, but whether Babar will be able to do so is a big question in itself.
