Pakistan Under-19 head coach Mohammad Yousuf said batsmen Azan Awais and Saad Baig are fantastic players who can still get better.
Both players have been highly impressive as of late as they have consistently scored runs.
With Azan being 19 and Baig being 17, Yousuf acknowledged that they bat very maturely, but still have room for improvement, which would enable them to elevate their respective games to another level.
“Azan and Saad have shown very mature batting, and may Allah bless them to play even better,” he told Cricket Pakistan.
Meanwhile, the Pakistan team are currently involved in a five-match T20I series against New Zealand, where they trail 3-0.
