Pakistan hard-hitting batter Fakhar Zaman throws his support behind fellow teammates Saim Ayub and Azam Khan, following their recent setbacks in the recently concluded five-match T20I series against New Zealand.<\/p>\n

In a recent interview with a local YouTube channel, Zaman emphasized that the authority to make decisions about player exclusions lies outside his influence, resting solely in the hands of the captain and head coach.<\/p>\n

“This wasn’t in my hands because it’s the decision of the captain and head coach. But if I was the captain or if it was in my hands, I would never drop Saim Ayub or Azam Khan from any T20 team. They should be given more chances,” Fakhar said.<\/p>\n

It is worth noting that the Pakistan team under the leadership of Shaheen faced a resounding 4-1 defeat in the aforementioned series against New Zealand.<\/p>\n

In this series, emerging opener Saim Ayub struggled, participated in four matches and accumulated 39 runs at an average of 9.75. Meanwhile, wicket-keeper batsman Azam Khan, who featured in three matches, managed to score 22 runs with an average of 7.33.<\/p>\n
