This would mean that he would most likely be a part of CT 2025 squad as well. Should Ayub fail to recover on time, then Zaman is the best option that Pakistan have for the role of an opener.
With 3492 runs from 82 ODIs, Zaman is indeed one of the best openers produced by Pakistan. averaging 46.45, he has 11 centuries and 16 fifties to his name. He is surely a better opening option for Pakistan instead of Abdullah Shafique who has been inconsistent. Had Fakhar Zaman paired up with Saim Ayub to be Pakistan opener, then the duo would surely have terrorized the rest of the teams and boost the batting line-up of Pakistan by a great extent.
