Markram is the 5th batsman to bag a pair in India. Aiden Markram captained the South Africa-A side on its tour to India this year and scored a stroke-filled knock of 161 during the second, unofficial Test in Mysore. Just before the ongoing Test series against India began, he smacked another ton in the practice game in Vizianagaram against a Board President’s XI. Markram reached three figures off just 118 deliveries and retired hurt to give the rest of the batting some practice.
Exciting young players keep breaking out all the time in international cricket but very few are able to make the most of their potential and live up to the initial hype. Even rarer are the prodigies who surpass that early promise and turn their raw talent into something truly elite with each passing year. One such talent is Babar Azam who has taken the cricketing world by storm ever since he made his international debut against Zimbabwe on May, 2015.

We examine 10 of his best knocks, in no particular order, across all formats.
