Ahead of the much-awaited India vs Pakistan clash at the iconic Dubai International Stadium, the same venue where the Indians handed the hosts, Pakistan, a humiliating defeat in the ICC Champions Trophy game, former as well as current players have made some audacious claims.
Fakhar Zaman is undoubtedly one of those very few players who have played lots of cricket alongside Babar Azam and is now playing alongside the likes of next-generation stars like Saim Ayub. This is because of the batter's ability to hit the long ball, hence making him a fit in every aspect of the game.
Now, Fakhar Zaman has come forward to praise young Ayub's calibre as a batter and has claimed that he is the updated version of snubbed former skipper Babar Azam during a video appearance on the social media handle of the ACC.
“He is a very different player and I think he has not yet shown 80 per cent of himself to the world,” he added.
Mike Hesson has also shown immense faith in the Pakistani youngster
“Look, Saim is a key player for us and we know that if Saim scores runs, we generally win,” Hesson stated.
Pakistan kick off Asia Cup 2025 in commanding style
Pakistan, just like India, has made a strong start to its Asia Cup campaign. Having played in just the first game, the batters scored 160 runs with the help of Muhammad Haris' commanding half-century.
Pakistan won the match by a huge 93-run margin and has managed to take a huge lead of 4.650 in the points table, which means just winning or even a draw against the UAE in their third game could seal them a spot in the Super 4, keeping the result of the India vs Pakistan match aside.
