In a dramatic turn of events, Babar Azam, the Peshawar Zalmi skipper, narrowly missed the opportunity to shatter Fakhar Zaman’s all-time PSL record for most runs scored in a single season after being sent packing for a duck in the final against Hyderabad Kingsmen at Gaddafi Stadium. With just one run needed to surpass Fakhar’s benchmark, Babar’s dismissal without scoring left him on the cusp of a historic milestone. Fakhar Zaman had previously etched his name in the record books in the 2022 PSL season while representing Lahore Qalandars, accumulating 588 runs in 13 innings at a strike rate of 152.72, including seven half-centuries and one century. Babar matched this impressive tally in 2026, scoring 588 runs in 11 innings at an average of 73.50 and a strike rate of 145.90, with two centuries and three half-centuries to his name. Earlier in the tournament, Babar had achieved a milestone by equalling two major records with a century against Islamabad United in the Qualifier, where he amassed 103 runs off 59 deliveries, including 12 fours and four sixes, to help his team post 221-7 in 20 overs. His 57-ball century was his second of the season, making him only the second batter in PSL history to achieve this feat, joining Usman Khan, who had accomplished the same in PSL 9 for Multan Sultans.
