"The way Fakhar Zaman scored in such a big match, all of Pakistan is happy with him" : Imran Khan
Imran Khan speaking on TV after the India-Pakistan Champions Trophy final:
"When Pakistan had put up such a big score, I knew they would win as bowling is their strength. Once there is scoreboard pressure, I was sure Pakistan would win."
"If India would have batted first today, I think it would be difficult for us to win as they have a long batting lineup. When you bat first, you don't have scoreboard pressure. When you bat second, you have to contend with the bowlers and the rising run-rate."
"Our strength is our bowling and we contained them after putting up the big total."
"I would like to specially congratulate Fakhar Zaman. His technique hasn't developed yet but he has an immense amount of talent. Very few players have such talent after playing such little cricket and the way he scored in such a big match, all of Pakistan is happy with him."
"Now more than the team, the bigger worry is the cricket structure. I was with Viv Richards and Ian Chappell recently and they both said Pakistan has the most talent. The problem is that we don't have a proper system in place."
"Until we don't rectify the system by having six main FC teams with all the main talented players. That competition will produce players that no one in the world will be able to beat."
"PSL should be in Pakistan, not in Dubai. Foreign players should come to Pakistan, if they aren't willing, then Pakistani players should play only. But they shouldn't go and play in Dubai."
