Pakistan cricket team captain Babar Azam has equaled Indian star batsman Virat Kohli’s record of most fifties scored in T20 format.
Azam achieved the milestone in the first T20 match against Ireland on Friday.
Virat Kohli has scored 38 fifties in 109 T20 matches while Babar Azam scored his 38th fifty in the 108th match of his T20 career. Kohli converted only one of his 38 fifties into a century while Babar Azam has converted his fifties into centuries thrice.
Azam also broke the record of Australia’s Arron Finch of captaining most matches in T20 format.
Ireland defeated Pakistan by five wicket after a thrilling last over.
