What to expect
Fakhar Zaman’s record against India is a mixed story. His 114 in the 2017 Champions Trophy final is a Pakistan cricket highlight. But, besides that game, he’s often struggled, especially in important Asia Cup matches.
- Good in ODIs: One great innings makes his average (46.80) look pretty good.
- Needs Work in T20Is: Still trying to get consistent and make a difference.
- Asia Cup Struggles: In 3 games against India, he hasn’t made a big impact.
Fakhar can win games on his own but if he wants to be remembered in India-Pakistan rivalry, being consistent – especially in tournaments like Asia Cup – is what matters.
