What's new

Most runs scored by a batsman aged 25 or under in a single ICC Cricket World Cup

Unlike the others Tendulker was already a veteran by 1996 so it's kind of misleading but also shows what an amazing talent he was.
 
Tendulkar obviously dominated the 96 tournament like no one literally did before turning even 25. That is a quality of very very special player which he eventually became over his long career.

Others are just there as numbers. Babar has really started excelling himself and should become a Pakistani great without any shadow of doubt. He needs to ante up things in tests though.

Many argue about de Villiers incapability to win the World Cup but at age of 22 only, he had played a terrific inning of 92(75) vs legendary Australia team and it took a surprise run-out to get him out and in addition to that, he also played a brilliant 146 vs a very decent West Indies side in Windies.
 
Great company for young Babar, the other 4 have defined batsmanship of the last 30 years.
