Fawad Alam becomes first Asian Batsman to convert his four Test 50s into 100s
Pakistani ace batsman Fawad Alam has achieved another milestone becoming the first...
West Indies former bowler Samuel Badree praised Pakistan batsman Fawad Alam for achieving the milestone after scoring his fifth century in eight Test matches since his comeback after 11 years of hiatus.
On his Twitter handle, after Alam scored his fifth Test century to help Pakistan move towards victory in the second Test, Badree appreciated his dedication who was ignored for 11 years despite scoring his first century on his debut Test match.
“Consider a Test century on debut and dropped after 3 tests. Consider the first-class average over 60 since 2010 and not selected for the test team. And finally, consider 5 test centuries in 8 tests after a hiatus of 11 years. Persistence personified,” he wrote.
