PAK vs NZ: Babar Azam writes history; becomes fastest Batter to score 5000 ODI runs
Babar has been the best ODI batsman in the last couple of years. He is breaking records after records after matches he is playing. On Friday, the Pakistan skipper added another feather to his cap. With the century in the fourth ODI, he has now become the fastest batter in the world to score 5000 runs in ODI cricket. In fact, he also became the only batter to score 5000 ODI runs in less than 100 innings.

He took only 97 innings to achieve this landmark. He broke the record of former South African star Hashim Amla, who took 101 innings to do so. Sir Viv Richards and Virat Kohli are joint-third fastest on this list with 114 innings each. Earlier in the first ODI, Babar also completed 12,000 runs in his international career. He is the second-fastest in the subcontinent and the sixth-fastest to reach 20,000 international runs in history.
Pakistan has already won the ongoing five-match series with wins in the first three games. The Men in Green have a great chance to become the No. 1-ranked ODI team. For that, they need to whitewash the Black Caps in the series. The way Pakistan is playing it, it doesn’t look difficult. Earlier, the five-match T20 series between the two teams was tied 2-2.
