2. Babar Azam : 151 vs Nepal - Asia Cup 2023
Pakistan's skipper Babar Azam hit a scintillating 151 in the very first match of the Asia Cup 2023. Up against Nepal, Babar found himself early to the crease. After two early wickets, Babar held the innings with Mohammad Rizwan, playing through the initial phase with no risk.
He showed proper respect to the bowlers as he waited for them to bowl loose balls to fetch early runs. Initially, he had a slow start but after his century he changed gears. With this innings, Babar Azam became the quickest in the World to reach the 19 ODI hundreds (in terms of innings).
In no time, Babar brought up his second ODI 150. He went after the spinners who missed their line and length in front of someone like Babar. He was toying with the fielders. Also, the lack of big match experience affected Nepal's game. In the end, Pakistan thrashed Nepal in their first-ever Asia Cup game by a huge margin.
