“Misbah-ul-Haq told me that I could do best at fourth or fifth batting position in T20Is”: Fakhar Zaman

[BouncerGuy]

TBH, Fakhar is playing on the basis of ODI performance atm..His t20 performance has been mediocre.. He looks wasted in T20s now...

 

[Sachin fan]

Misbah saved his career by this advice, he would have been kicked out of t20 team long ago if he was in top prder

I agreed with @Mamoon view about fakhar.he is poor man Dhawan. Both are gun batsman in odi but struggles in T20 cricket.

This format doesn't suit everyone. Pant has had his share of struggles by trying to over hit and losing shape. Fakhar is not only unsuitable. But he is visibly very old. Older than the "officially stated" age. By now he should have retired from this format.

Still think he will be more valuable at No.4 with the older ball. It's an easier position to bat and less pressure.

Agha needs to come at three between Saim, Sahibzada and Fakhar, Nawaz.

And, please, play a better batter at 6, not the relu-katta Mo Nawaz. Play Khushdil or Talat or them both and let Farhan keep wickets.

Once again, not true.

Fakhar Zaman in PSL 2025: avg 34 Sr 153 (2nd highest runs scorer)
2024 T20Is: Avg 27 Sr 152

He is selected on merit. He has till Asia Cup to perform and retain his place.

Fakhar Zaman scores a half-century after a long time, and what a great occasion to get it when Pakistan was on verge of collapsing against UAE in the match 5 of Tri-Nation series 2025. He needs to end well, currently at 54*(36)
