The man, the myth, the LEGEND! - Fakhar Zaman!
No matter what direction his career heads here on, Fakhar Zaman has not only written but carved his name in history! He turned up with a magnificent and brutal century in the all important India vs Pakistan Champions Trophy final and made sure he saw Pakistan home.
An India vs Pakistan affair is not just any game, more than a billion people across the globe leave work, skip school and a thousand other daily life activities to watch this game and the fact that it was the final is just icing on the cake. The pressure on the players is beyond human perception and Fakhar Zaman took the challenge like a champion. People called him a legside hack, an off-side hack, an ugly player, a "bottler", a "tullay-baaz", a fluke and a thousand other things but boy, did he turn up.
Playing in alien conditions, against some of the fiercest attacks in the world, in his very first series for Pakistan and with the weight of all the hopes and dreams (and pressure too!), Fakhar Zaman won it for Pakistan.
To all the naysayers: Please stop ridiculing young talent and depriving them of spots in the team. Poor old Zaman is short of only one mediocre score before PP (and the rest of Pakistan) start calling for his head and year for the return of our beloved Shehzad's and Akmal's.
Thank you Fakhar Zaman. Thank you for being the first Pakistan to score a scintillating
ik2 ) century in a championship final (doing it vs India was just icing on the cake). Only if we learned to appreciate talent like you..
P.S. We need a Fakhar Zaman smiley!
