Sahibzada Farhan Shatters Abhishek Sharma's All

The Pakistan captain finished with 238 runs and three consecutive half-centuries, surpassing Abhishek Sharma's 229 for the top mark in a three-match bilateral series.

  • On Tuesday, Pakistan captain Sahibzada Farhan set a new record for most runs in a three-match bilateral T20I series between full member nations, finishing with 238 runs and surpassing India's Abhishek Sharma's previous mark of 229.
  • Farhan registered half-centuries in each of the three fixtures, including a match-winning 89 in the opening match, earning him the Player of the Series award for his consistent performance throughout the series.
  • Sri Lanka claimed an eight-wicket victory on Tuesday's final match at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, with captain Kusal Mendis scoring 87 off 47 balls to lead the successful chase.
  • Pakistan had already secured the series with dominant wins on October 9 and October 11, so the final match defeat did not affect the overall series outcome or Farhan's record-breaking achievement.
  • Farhan's 238-run tally tops the historical list for three-match bilateral series, ahead of Sharma , Colin Munro , David Warner , and Hazratullah Zazai .
