Shadab Khan scripted history with an unbeaten 113 against England in the ODI tri-series on Sunday. He broke the record for the highest ever individual score by a no. 8 batter in ODI cricket.
Pakistan were reeling at 154/9 while chasing 242 in the 4th ODI of the ODI Tri-Series before Shadab produced a stunning century to guide his team home in a thrilling finish at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium.
Shadab Khan 113* Becomes Highest Score By A no. 8 Batter In ODIs
Shadab Khan now sits alone at the top of the list of highest individual scores by a no. 8 batter in ODIs. His remarkable knock took him past two players who previously shared the record.
Highest Individual Scores By A no. 8 Batter In ODIs:
- 113* – Shadab Khan (Pakistan) vs England, Lahore, 2026
- 100* – Simi Singh (Ireland) vs South Africa, Malahide, 2021
- 100* – Mehidy Hasan Miraz (Bangladesh) vs India, Mirpur, 2022
The previous best was 100 not out, achieved by Ireland's Simi Singh against South Africa in Malahide in 2021 and Bangladesh's Mehidy Hasan Miraz against India in Mirpur in 2022. Shadab has now surpassed both with his unbeaten 113 off 96 balls.
Shadab Khan, Haris Rauf Break 51-Year-Old ODI Record With Historic 10th-Wicket Stand
Shadab Khan and Haris Rauf scripted history against England in Lahore, registering the highest 10th-wicket partnership in a successful ODI run-chase. Their unbeaten 89-run stand broke a record that had stood for 51 years in international cricket.
The previous record belonged to West Indies’ Deryck Murray and Andy Roberts, who added an unbeaten 64-run stand for the 10th wicket while chasing 267 against Pakistan in the 1975 World Cup in Birmingham.
Highest 10th-wicket partnerships in a successful ODI chase
- 89* - Shadab Khan & Haris Rauf vs England, Lahore, 2026, Tonight*
- 64* - Deryck Murray & Andy Roberts vs Pakistan, Birmingham, 1975
- 57* - James Faulkner & Clint McKay vs England, Brisbane, 2014
With Haris Rauf joining him at no. 11 at 154/9, Shadab Khan found a partner who could defend his wicket. While Rauf held firm at the other end, Shadab took charge of the scoring and kept Pakistan's hopes alive.
The pair completed an incredible chase with 17 balls to spare, snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.
Shadab's unbeaten 113, a new world record for the highest individual score by a no. 8 batter in ODIs, helped Pakistan pull off the unthinkable.
