Pakistan’s star
opening pair Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan has been on a role as they dethroned
India’s Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul from a unique feat.
The duo provided a 158-run opening stand to help Pakistan
chase a record 208-run total at the National Stadium Karachi against West
Indies on Thursday.
This was the sixth-century stand between the pair — the most
by any batting partners in T20Is.
Previously, the record was held by India’s batting pair of Rohit
Sharma and KL Rahul, who had five-century stands to their credit.
Among these six-century partnerships, three have come while
batting second. No other pair has such a record while chasing the target.
It is worth mentioning here that Pakistan clinched the T20I
series 3-0 against the Windies.
