“Most of all, I believe Fakhar Zaman should be promoted to open the innings alongside Mohammad Rizwan, with Babar dropping down to number three.

“For several reasons, this game wasn’t about playing aggressively. But strategy and smart cricket were required to get the run chase over the line, and those qualities are exactly what Pakistan lacked.
“Republic of India have now gained seven in their 8 fits towards Pakistan on the ICC Males’s T20 Global Cup and Pakistan fanatics are extremely disillusioned,” said Afridi referring to India’s dominant record against the arch-rivals in world events.
