Now asad Shafique become 16^th Pakistani Batsman to have more three thousands

runs in just 46* test in match against West indies at Abu Dhabi today 21/10/2016.

During the course of his magnificent 114 in the recent Old Trafford Test, Inzamam-ul-Haq completed 5000 runs in Test Cricket and became only the fourth Pakistani and 74th cricketer in the world to achieve this landmark. Inzamam's crossing of the milestone made me compile a list of Pakistani batsmen who have scored 3000 or more runs in test cricket. This list, along with a list of the first Pakistani batsmen to cross 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, 7000 and 8000 runs, is presented below:
