LAHORE: Mohammad Rizwan has etched his name in Pakistan’s Test cricket history by registering the highest score by a Pakistani wicketkeeper in the 21st century.
His unbeaten 171-run knock against Bangladesh in the first Test at Rawalpindi surpassed the previous record held by Kamran Akmal. Rizwan has scored 414 runs in his last five Test innings at an average of 103.50. Rizwan’s unbeaten 171* is not only the highest score by a Pakistani wicketkeeper this century but also the second-highest unbeaten score for a Pakistani wicketkeeper in Tests overall.
