Afghanistan superstar Rashid Khan has urged Pakistan opening batsman Fakhar Zaman to capitalise on his current form in the upcoming limited overs series against Australia.
Zaman is coming off a triumphant Pakistan Super League (PSL) season with the Lahore Qalandars as he was the highest run-scorer in the tournament with 588 runs in 13 matches, which included a century and seven fifties, at an average of 45.23 and a strike-rate of 152.72.
Having been picked for the ODI and T20 series against Australia, Rashid wants Zaman to score big and not let his red-hot form go to waste.
“His aim is to maximise on this magnificent form too,” he told Cricket Pakistan.
The white-ball series between Pakistan and Australia begins on March 29 and will be played in Lahore.
