Pakistan captain Babar Azam continued his rich vein of form in the ongoing first match against Sri Lanka at Galle International Stadium as he completed his seventh Test ton. No Pakistan batter was able to stay at the crease for long, and it was Babar who kept Sri Lanka at bay, leading Pakistan's fightback. The right-handed batter completed his century in the 85th over of the innings and he brought up the three-figure mark in 216 balls.

Virat Kohli's poor batting form continues as the player is yet to play any noticeable knock in India's ongoing tour to England. The right-handed batter was a part of the playing XI in the fifth and rescheduled Test match in which he scored 11 and 20. Kohli was then rested from the first T20I against England before making a return to the team only to score 1 and 11 in the remaining two matches. Kohli also missed the first ODI against England due to a groin strain before returning to the team for the second ODI. He was dismissed for a 25-ball 16 in the game.

On the second day of the ongoing 1st Test against Sri Lanka, Babar completed 10,000 international runs and, in the process, he became the fastest Pakistan batter to achieve this particular milestone. Babar took just 228 innings to bring up 10,000 international runs, 20 fewer innings than the second-placed Javed Miandad.
