Farhan Breaks Kohli Record, Faces Book Rumors
15 Mar
Summary
- Farhan surpassed Virat Kohli's record for most runs in a single tournament edition.
- He scored two centuries, finishing with 383 runs at an average of 76.60.
- Rumors suggest he might release a book about his record-breaking achievement.
Sahibzada Farhan has etched his name in the T20 World Cup history books, surpassing Virat Kohli's record for the most runs in a single edition. Farhan amassed an impressive 383 runs at an average of 76.60, including two centuries, eclipsing Kohli's previous best of 319 runs from the 2014 edition. He also became only the second player to score multiple centuries in one tournament.
Despite Farhan's stellar performance, Pakistan's T20 World Cup 2026 campaign ended prematurely in the Super 8 stage. After advancing from the group stage, they faced a crucial match against Sri Lanka. Farhan's century, alongside Fakhar Zaman's 84, propelled Pakistan to 212/8. However, a narrow 5-run loss on Net Run Rate, despite winning the match, eliminated them from semi-final contention.
Following the World Cup, Pakistan proceeded to a three-match ODI series in Bangladesh. They secured a series-leveling victory in the second match after an initial loss in the first fixture. Meanwhile, rumors are circulating about Farhan potentially launching a book about his record-breaking achievement, though no official confirmation has been made.
