@TheRealPCB For heavens sake, axe #FakharZaman for his consistent poor batting. #AbdullahShafique & #SaudShakeel should open for #Pakistan. At least Abdullah will get out playing proper cricketing shots! @PakPMO pls step in to end the nepotism. #PAKvNED #icccricketworldcup2023

Pakistan could make more than 300 runs if our top Batters are not out. Fakhar Zaman is not performing well and immediately he must be replaced with Abdullah Shafiq as an Opener. He is a great Batter. #PAKvsNED
