In a remarkable display of skill, Babar Azam (captain of Pakistan's cricket team) became the fastest player to reach 12,000 runs in T20 cricket, achieving this feat in just 338 innings during a Pakistan Super League (PSL) match in Karachi. This record-breaking performance came as a response to critics who had compared him unfavorably to Indian cricketer Virat Kohli, who reached the same milestone in 360 innings. During the match, Babar scored an impressive 87 runs off 51 balls, including 10 fours and 2 sixes, leading Peshawar Zalmi to a total of 246 runs. The Karachi Kings, in reply, struggled significantly and were dismissed for a mere 87 runs, with three bowlers from Zalmi claiming three wickets each. This victory not only highlighted Babar's batting prowess but also underscored his ability to silence critics with his performance on the field.
