In a crucial Group B match against England at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Wednesday, Zadran scored a remarkable 177 runs off 146 balls.

His impressive innings included 12 boundaries and six sixes, surpassing the previous record of 165 set by England’s Ben Duckett earlier in the tournament.

Zadran’s knock not only broke the Champions Trophy record but also marked his sixth ODI century, making him the first Afghan player to score a hundred in the tournament.

His performance was pivotal in helping Afghanistan recover from an early collapse, as they finished with a total of 325/7.

This achievement highlights Zadran’s growing stature as one of Afghanistan’s most dependable batters, with a strong average of 48.38 in ODI cricket. His ability to anchor innings and score big runs will be crucial for Afghanistan’s future success in international cricket.
