57 followed by 66 (in the Final). Khawaja Nafay is in some form.

They don't create backups man. Giving chances to players like Farhan and Usman.
Had they taken him on tour to even place like Zimbabwe for One Day Cricket. Management would've had Nafay ready as backup.

Nafay has a ladder right in front of him in the shape pf PSL 10. He can make it into the team by smashing some runs in PSL

They don’t have to wake up. I will continue to give them a rude awakening

Khawaja Nafay is known for being an explosive opener but in PSL X, he is being forced to play out of his favorite position at number 4. So would this decision benefit him and his team?

Rangpur riders have announced their squad for the Global Super League and Nafay has been named among them.
It will be a great opportunity to play against other franchise teams around the world.

Khawaja Mohammad Nafay's media talk in Lahore | NCA Skills Development Camp
On the second phase of the training camp:
“There’s been a lot of improvement. As you can see, we wake up at 4:30 AM, and our session starts at 6:00 AM. We’re learning a lot about power hitting with Razzaq Bhai, and we’re also working with the spinners. There’s so much to learn, and we’re trying to maintain this routine even after the camp ends.”
On being dropped after scoring 50 in the PSL:
“We, as players, always try to give our 100% whenever we get an opportunity, fulfilling the team’s requirements. I did score 50, and the team combination was such that there was no place for me even after that performance. But it was a good experience, absolutely fine.”
On handling pressure games:
“Absolutely, in our training sessions, we play 800 balls a day. We play them quickly so our muscles don’t tire. They’re telling us that this will greatly benefit us when we face pressure games.”
On wicket-keeping alongside batting:
“Definitely, in modern-day cricket, one skill isn’t enough. The management has told me that I’m a good wicket-keeper. The coaches are working with me to improve as much as possible, which is good for me, Alhamdulillah.”
On praise from Sir Vivian Richards:
“Regarding batting techniques, we often showed him our videos. He would say that he had belief in himself and in the practice he put in. I asked him how he developed his technique, and he said it was all about belief in himself and his practice. He advised me to have the same belief in myself.”
On his “no-look shots”:
“No, it’s nothing like that. It’s just that when a batsman middles the ball, they know it’s a clean hit. The ‘no-look’ aspect isn’t that significant; it’s just a habit to look down after middling the ball. It’s simple, Ashraf Bhai.”
On aspirations in different formats:
“We work hard to represent Pakistan and do something for our country. That’s the goal. We practice everything, and if we get a chance in red-ball cricket, we’ll definitely be ready because we practice for all formats.”
On working with different coaches:
“I’ve worked with many coaches, but they always emphasize not changing your natural game. They just add a few things. For example, Razzaq Bhai recently added something; he told me to stick to my natural game. He taught me a power-hitting shot and said to keep my base strong while hitting. No one tells me to change my natural game, so it doesn’t affect me because they always say not to change your natural style.”
On players he follows:
“I mostly watch my own videos. I review them to see what changes I need to make.”
On format preference and clarity from coaches:
“They haven’t specifically told me which format they’ll consider me for. They’ve just told me to be ready as a wicket-keeper. My goal is to be prepared, and I’ll give my 100% in whichever format I get the opportunity.”

Good that they're moving from haseebullah and focusing on khwaja nafay as backup keeper.

Proper white ball guns who can don the gloves!
I’ve seen Nafay keep in BPL, he’s more than decent with the gloves

When there will be another Misbah Coup, it will be Haseebullah who will be shoved down our throats just like Rizwan was.
