Fakhar Zaman should not be selected for T20s

[Sycamore]

Selecting Fakhar for the T20 games is very detrimental to his overall game. We all know he is not a slogger, he needs time to adjust and get going. The reason for his slump was that he trying to blast it from the get go as the team management demanded. Furthermore the T20WC is going to be in the subcontinent where he struggles the most. Sharjeel, babar, rizwan and haider are all vying for an opening slot and are more suited for the T20 lineup.

No. You're wrong.

He should be and he will be.

The only issue I see in opening with Fakhar and Sharjeel is that both of them have a weak off-side game, so if bowlers can bowl length outside off, both of them will always try to carve it to the leg-side.

Nevertheless, it is still worth a try, and it will be nice to see Pakistan potentially dominate the powerplay from ball #1.

I think having sharjeel thier may release some preesure off him in the first 6 overs
