Babar Azam, captain of Peshawar Zalmi, was dismissed for a duck in the PSL 11 final against Hyderabad Kingsmen at Gaddafi Stadium on Sunday, falling just short of Fakhar Zaman’s record for most runs in a single season. The right-handed batter entered the high-stakes final needing just one run to surpass Zaman’s landmark tally. However, he was dismissed without scoring, missing out on a historic milestone. Previously, Zaman—representing Lahore Qalandars—set the record in the 2022 edition, amassing 588 runs in 13 innings at a strike rate of 152.72, including seven half-centuries and one century. Babar, meanwhile, equalled that tally in just 11 innings, scoring at an outstanding average of 73.50 and a strike rate of 145.90. His season included two centuries and three half-centuries. ### Most runs in a PSL season * Babar Azam (Peshawar Zalmi) – 588 runs in 2026 * Fakhar Zaman (Lahore Qalandars) – 588 runs in 2022 * Babar Azam (Peshawar Zalmi) – 569 runs in 2024 * Babar Azam (Karachi Kings) – 554 runs in 2021 * Mohammad Rizwan (Multan Sultans) – 550 runs in 2023 * Mohammad Rizwan (Multan Sultans) – 546 runs in 2022 * Kusal Mendis (Peshawar Zalmi) – 541* runs in 2026 * Babar Azam (Peshawar Zalmi) – 522 runs in 2023 * Mohammad Rizwan (Multan Sultans) – 500 runs in 2021 Moreover, the 31-year-old had earlier equalled two major records during the ongoing edition with a blistering century against Islamabad United in the Qualifier. Babar top-scored in that high-pressure match with a superb 103 off 59 deliveries, including 12 fours and four sixes, helping his side post 221/7 in 20 overs. His 57-ball century was his second of the season, making him only the second batter in PSL history to score two centuries in a single edition—joining Usman Khan, who achieved the feat in PSL 9 for Multan Sultans.
