Legendary all-rounder Mohammad Nabi entered his name in the history books on Thursday, September 18, by becoming the first cricketer from Afghanistan to score 6000 runs in international cricket. The 40-year-old cricketer needed 3 runs in the Asia Cup 2025 match between Afghanistan and Sri Lanka in Abu Dhabi to complete 6000 runs in international cricket, and he achieved the objective by taking a single on the first ball of the 15th over of Afghanistan\u2019s innings bowled by former Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka.<\/p>\n

As of now, Nabi has 6000 runs to his credit in 315 matches. He has scored 33 runs in three Tests, 3667 runs in 173 ODIs and 2300 runs in 139 T20I matches.<\/p>\n

Nabi is Afghanistan\u2019s highest run-getter in T20Is and second-leading run scorer in the 50-over format of the game.<\/p>\n

In the T20I format of the Asia Cup, he has scored 102 runs in 10 innings of 11 matches played so far across two editions and picked up seven wickets.<\/p>\n

The ongoing match between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan in Abu Dhabi is a must-win fixture for the Rashid Khan-led side. If Afghanistan manage to get the better of Sri Lanka, then they will finish in the top two and qualify for the Super 4s, but if they lose, then Sri Lanka will top Group B and qualify for the Super 4s along with Bangladesh.<\/p>\n

Bangladesh managed to win 2 out of three Group B matches in the Asia Cup 2025, but their net run rate (NRR) is poorer than that of Sri Lanka and Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

In the first Super 4s match of Asia Cup 2025, the top two teams of Group B will face each other in Dubai on Saturday, September 20.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
