Fakhar innings is over shadowed . With out his innings it was almost impossible to win this match. Real team work except the middle order. Babar hafeez n shoaib. Almost all bowlers delivered .
It will be critical to bring shadab in the next match or not and for whose expense. Hafeez imad or faheem. Drop hafeez n bring shadab will be very tough but than Malik to bowl few. I think they need to take this decision. But then the batting order will be too short.

Even though he survived two chances (the second a running catch was a difficult one) Sarfraz played a captain’s knock under pressure
Amir deserves a special mention too as without him we would have almost certainly lost this game
Due to Fakhar’s knock upfront, Pak never really had to bother about RRR. Imagine if this was Shehzad batting with Azhar (though he batted well today), we would have been 70 odd for 2 after 20 overs!! …and the game might have well gone down to the last over.
Sarfraz needs to impress upon Fakhar that once he has got his eye in, then he needs to bat as many overs as he can esp. after seeing what happened today..
