Excellent

Keep this up throughout

Tough times will come. Do not take a back gear!
 
What an innings from maaz.
Where is @RizwanT20Champ who was saying he is not talented enough to even tie rizwans shoelaces ??
Tbf getting 96* off 54 as an opener when the team scored 220 isn’t a great innings

He’s an ok batter, but if you are opening and playing through on a flat deck against associate level bowlers, you have to end up with 130+

No pak batter has the talent to score 130 off 54 odd balls.

Still can hit sixes to both pacers and spinners all over the ground.
