Srinagar: Pakistan star opener Rakhar Zaman has termed Shaheen Afridi as tougher bowler to face than compared to Australian Mitchell Starc and New Zealand pacer Trent Boult
“It is tougher to bat against Shaheen than Starc or Boult,” Fakhar said on PCB podcast.
The left-handed opener stated that Rizwan and Babar Azam have set high standards, and everyone is trying to perform and adapt equally well.
Fakhar, who has represented Pakistan in 70 one-day internationals, said that his technique has changed since 2016, and he tries to focus more on his batting to overcome his weaknesses, which has resulted in success.
The 33-year-old also said that whenever he scores runs for Pakistan, it feels great, and he has worked hard to improve his power-hitting and fitness in international cricket.
Fakhar believes that cricket is a game where you cannot make predictions, but he can say that Babar will score big in five out of ten matches.
