Babar Azam's Historic Milestone: First Asian Batter to Reach 3,000 Runs in ICC World Test Championship

Image
  Pakistan’s former captain Babar Azam, who has been under intense criticism in recent months, made a stunning comeback on Sunday by achieving a historic milestone during the ongoing Test match against South Africa at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium. The prolific right-hander became the first Asian cricketer to score 3,000 runs in the World Test Championship (WTC). Needing just two runs to reach the landmark, Babar achieved the feat in style, striking a boundary off Senuran Muthusamy’s delivery in the 49th over of Pakistan’s first innings. His elegant shot not only brought up the milestone but also reaffirmed his stature as one of the most consistent performers in modern Test cricket. Before Babar, the elite 3,000-run club in the WTC era included four Australian batters — Steve Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, Travis Head, and Usman Khawaja — and three Englishmen — Joe Root, Ben Stokes, and Zak Crawley. Babar is now the eighth batter overall and the first from Asia to cross the 3,000-run mark i...

Image
  The UAE is buzzing with growth again! Throughout the past year, tourism, hospitality, and aviation licenses have   skyrocketed in Dubai , Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and other emirates. The increase in numbers is a good thing. However, behind that, it also means job opportunities for thousands of experts and expatriates, which would also include Pakistanis who call the United Arab Emirates their second home. Tourism Keeps Rising From record numbers of visitors in Dubai to Abu Dhabi’s cultural sites receiving international attention, the tourism industry in the UAE is booming. With the increase in licenses comes more travel companies, more tours, and more business for outgoing agencies to service visitors.

These shifts don’t sit on paper alone — they land in markets, petrol stations, and households. Pakistani Rupee vs US Dollar (USD) The PKR to USD rate today sits close to 282.
