Haseebullah Khan goes past Imam-ul-Haq, Babar Azam

KARACHI: Pakistan Under 19 centurion – Haseebullah Khan claimed numerous records with his astonishing 135 against Zimbabwe in the ongoing ICC U19 World Cup.

Following his 135 against Zimbabwe, Haseebullah has now claimed the record for the highest individual score for Pakistan in U19 World Cups; surpassing Imam-ul-Haq’ 133 against Scotland in 2014. Babar Azam, on the other hand, has now moved to the third position with his 129 against West Indies in 2010.
