Check How Pakistan's Stars Did in the President's Trophy Grade-I 2026-27 Before the Final Round
Salman Agha has 572 runs and Haris Rauf 18 wickets in the President's Trophy Grade-I 2026-27, as reported after round 6. See Babar, Shaheen, Shan and Naseem.
Short answer: Before the last round, Salman Agha led Pakistan's international players in the President's Trophy Grade-I 2026-27 with 572 runs in 5 matches, and Haris Rauf had 18 wickets in 4. Babar Azam made 58 runs in 4 innings, an average of 14.50. These figures are as reported after the penultimate round, which finished on Saturday, 17 October 2026.
Many of Pakistan's top players returned to first-class cricket this season, and fans want to know who is in form. This page puts the reported numbers in one table and shows what each one does and does not tell you. The final round began on Monday, 19 October, so the figures are not the final ones. We could not open the cricket board's match centre, so every number is reported.
Salman Agha led the batting with 572 runs in 5 matches
Salman Agha scored 572 runs in 5 matches, with two centuries and one half-century, as reported after the penultimate round. That is an average of 114.4 runs a match, our own arithmetic. Saud Shakeel had 343 runs in 4 matches, with two centuries and a fifty.
| Batter | Matches | Runs | Reported detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| Salman Agha | 5 | 572 | Two centuries, one half-century |
| Saud Shakeel | 4 | 343 | Two centuries, one half-century |
| Shan Masood | 3 | 115 | One half-century |
| Babar Azam | 2 | 58 | Four innings, average 14.50 |
Salman Agha is also the man who made 107 in the tri-series opener, as set out in the report on the win over Sri Lanka at Rawalpindi. His domestic figures here run to 17 October, the day before that match.
Haris Rauf took 18 wickets at 20.55 in four matches
Haris Rauf took 18 wickets in 4 matches at an average of 20.55, including one five wicket haul. Runs per wicket of 20.55 means he gave away about 370 runs for the 18 wickets, our own arithmetic from the reported average.
| Bowler | Matches | Wickets | Reported detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| Haris Rauf | 4 | 18 | Average 20.55, one five wicket haul |
| Shaheen Shah Afridi | 1 | 4 | 47 runs |
| Shadab Khan | 1 | 4 | 68 runs |
| Naseem Shah | 1 | 3 | No runs reported |
Shaheen, Shadab and Naseem each played one match, so their figures are small samples. Four wickets in one match is a good game, not a trend.
Babar Azam and Shan Masood have fewer runs so far
Babar Azam made 58 runs in 4 innings over 2 matches, an average of 14.50. Shan Masood made 115 runs in 3 matches with one fifty. Both have played fewer matches than Salman Agha and Saud Shakeel, so the gap is partly about games.
- Check the number of matches first, not only the runs.
- Divide runs by innings to get an average: 58 / 4 = 14.5.
- Look at centuries and fifties for the shape of the runs.
- Compare with the opposition and the pitch, which a table does not show.
A low average in two matches is a short sample. We do not say a player is out of form from four innings, and the report does not either.
How to read a domestic table before the tri-series
Domestic numbers are a guide, not a selection rule. The tri-series squads were announced earlier, and the rankings that matter for them are in the report on Pakistan players' ICC ODI rankings. A first-class average and an ODI strike rate measure different skills.
The same is true in reverse. The President's Trophy Grade-I is first-class cricket, and the ODI tri-series is a 50 over game. For fixtures, venues and the table, see the page on the Grade-I fixtures and points table. The latest day report is the round 7 day 1 report.
Use these numbers as a guide, not a final ranking. A player with fewer matches can sit lower on the list simply because the season is young, and one long innings can change the order. Check the table again after the next round before you draw any conclusion about selection for the national side.

How we verified this
What we checked, where we read it, and what we could not confirm.
Last checked 21 October 2026. We read one published review of how Pakistan's international players did in the President's Trophy Grade-I 2026-27 after the penultimate round, plus the ICC playing conditions page, on 21 October 2026. The Pakistan Cricket Board match centre did not load, so all runs, wickets and averages are reported, not confirmed. The review does not give team names or dates for each match. The per match average of 114.4 and the 370 runs conceded are our own arithmetic.
