Pakistan Vs West Indies 1st ODI MATCH

PAKvWI: Babar Azam makes history as Pakistan beat West Indies in first Multan ODI

MULTAN – Babar Azam on Wednesday became the first batsman to score three consecutive hundreds in one-day internationals on two separate occasions after his 103 helped Pakistan draw first blood against the West Indies in Multan series.

The skipper shared a 103-run partnership with Imam-ul-Haq (65) and a 108-run stand with Mohammad Rizwan (59) as the hosts chased down a target of 306 in Multan to go 1-0 up in the three-match series. It was Pakistan’s highest successful run chase against West Indies in ODIs.

Babar, 27, made two centuries against Australia before Wednesday’s match and also racked up three tons in a row in 2016, all against the West Indies.

Babar’s innings also saw him become the quickest player to notch 17 ODI centuries and the fastest to complete 1,000 ODI runs as captain.
