Most runs in a T20 World Cup - Sahibzada Farhan breaks Virat Kohli's record

In a remarkable achievement, Pakistan's opener Sahibzada Farhan has set a new record for the most runs in a T20 World Cup, surpassing the previous record held by India's Virat Kohli. During a Super Eight match against Sri Lanka in Pallekele, Farhan exceeded Kohli's 2014 record of 319 runs, showcasing his exceptional batting skills. This milestone not only highlights Farhan's talent but also underscores the competitive nature of international T20 cricket. Kohli's record had stood for nearly a decade, making Farhan's achievement particularly significant. The match against Sri Lanka allowed Farhan to shine on a global stage, contributing to Pakistan's strong performance in the tournament. As T20 cricket continues to grow in popularity, records like these serve as a testament to the evolving dynamics of the game, with emerging players making their mark and pushing the boundaries of what is possible in this fast-paced format.
