Star India opener Shafali Verma makes cricket history during an India–Pakistan match by becoming the youngest and fastest player to reach 3,000 runs in Women’s T20 Internationals. Multiple outlets report that the milestone is recorded in terms of age and also in the fewest balls faced.
All the accounts link the achievement to the same game, where India plays Pakistan in a contest that ends decisively. Pakistan is reported to post a total of 56, and India reaches the target with seven wickets remaining, with Shafali’s batting highlighted as the moment that takes her into the 3,000-run mark.
While the outlets largely agree on the core facts—her age, the 3,000-run milestone, and the match outcome—some focus more on the “world record” framing (NDTV) and others specify the exact age figure and the “fastest by balls faced” detail (Times of India and Yahoo Sports). India Today repeats the same achievement framing without adding new statistics.
