-Vinay Kumar
In the first match of the tri-series (New Zealand, Bangladesh, Pakistan Triangular T20I Series, 2022) between Bangladesh, Pakistan and New Zealand, which started in New Zealand on Friday, Pakistan opener Mohammad Rizwan scored 78 runs in 50 balls against Bangladesh. And stay not out. With this unbeaten innings of 78 runs, another big record was recorded in his name. Such a record, which has been done in the name of only 2 batsmen in the world before him.

Significantly, with this latest innings, Mohammad Rizwan has become the batsman to score 1500 or more runs in T20I cricket in a calendar year. Before him, Babar Azam, the captain of the Pakistan cricket team and Chris Gayle, the great batsman of the West Indies have done this. These two batsmen have made such records twice. The ‘Universe Boss’ of the West Indies (Universe Boss Chris Gayle) scored 1532 runs in the year 2012 and 1665 in 2015. And, Babar Azam, Pakistan’s opener and prolific batsman, scored 1607 runs in the year 2019 and 1779 in the year 2012.
