Saud Shakeel has etched his name in the annals of Test cricket history by setting a unique world record. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

He is the first batsman in the 146-year history of Test cricket to achieve the rare feat of scoring 20 or more runs in 15 consecutive innings right from the start of his Test career.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Saud accomplished this record during Pakistan’s second innings of Perth Test, with the Men in Green\u00a0chasing 450-run target.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This accomplishment surpasses the previous record held by Sir Everton Weekes, who managed a streak of 14 innings.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Saud had brought up his seventh half-century on the third day of the second Test between Pakistan and Sri Lanka in Colombo. This feat made Shakeel the first batter in Test history to score a fifty in each of the first seven Tests.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Shakeel surpassed the likes of Sunil Gavaskar, Basil Butcher, Saeed Ahmad, and Bert Sutcliffe, who scored fifty or more runs in each of their\u00a0first six Test matches.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
