Misbah-ul-Haq on Saturday became the 12th cricketer in Pakistan history to complete 5,000 runs in One-Day International (ODI) cricket, during ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 match against South Africa at the Eden Park in Auckland, New Zealand on Saturday.

The 40-year-old brought up his 5,000 runs in the 50-over format in his 160th match, but unfortunately, the right-handed batsman has not yet scored a century in this format.

Misbah has played 160 matches so far and has had a healthy run rate in excess of 43 in ODI cricket. The right-handed batsman has a highest score of 96 not out and as many as 41 half-centuries, but not a single century in the format.

According to IANS, Pakistan Skipper Misbah-ul-Haq, who will retire from One-Day Internationals (ODIs) post the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015, hopes his retirement will bring in a new era for the country’s cricket in which a young leader will be chosen and given the responsibility to carry it forward.

‘It’s the time for Pakistan to look forward. If you are going to give captaincy to a youngster, he needs some time to develop a team and develop himself as a captain,’ Misbah was quoted as saying by espncricinfo on Friday.

‘I would really appreciate if the board shows confidence in someone for a long time. That can build stability in your team. It’s time to change and put some responsibility on the shoulders of these youngsters.’

Here’s a list of the 12 Pakistan cricketers who have scored 5,000 or more ODI runs:
