Babar currently has 9798 runs in 200 international matches which includes 23 centuries.
Pakistan captain Babar Azam is one of the finest batters going around and his records across formats speak volumes of his brilliance. Be it playing marathon knocks in Test cricket or scoring quick runs in the shortest international format of the game, the right-handed batter has ticked almost all the boxes and is touted to go a long way. Former Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh is also of the opinion that the 27-year-old will become a legend of the game.
Speaking on the matter, Harbhajan said it would be too early to put Babar in that elite category but predicted the Pakistan batter will be among the legends of the game going forward.
“But now it’s too early to put him in any league. Let him play and keep on scoring more runs and winning games for his team. And talent-wise he is no less than anyone else,” he added. It must be noted that Babar holds the pole position in the ICC rankings for ODI and T20I batters. As far as Test rankings are concerned, he’s placed at the fifth position. Coming to his numbers, Babar currently has 9798 runs in 200 international matches which includes 23 centuries.
