Back to back chances for Fakhar Zaman despite being inconsistent have wavered the followers. His failure since last few innings in the white-ball cricket and his troubling form shall have been an alarming sign for the selection committee while announcing the seventeen-men-squad against England for a three-match T20I series.

Have a look at his last 10 T20I innings:

Against	Runs	S/R	Average
New Zealand	24	160.00	28.96
New Zealand	11	68.75	28.24
South Africa	4	133.33	27.31
South Africa	14	156.67	26.81
South Africa	17	100.00	26.46
England	7	116.67	25.79
Sri Lanka	6	150.00	25.13
Sri Lanka	0	0.00	24.32
Australia	0	o.00	23.56
Australia	2	28.57	22.91

Have a look at his last 10 ODIs innings:

Against	Runs	S/R	Average
West  Indies	22	137.50	50.42
England	36	90.00	50.00
Australia	0	0.00	48.57
India	62	82.67	48.94
South Africa	44	88.00	48.81
New Zealand	19	90.00	47.76
Afghanistan	0	0.00	46.54
Bangladesh	13	41.94	45.70
Sri Lanka	54	83.08	45.90
Sri Lanka	76	83.52	46.62

Evolving the results from the listed stats, he seems to be out of form and averaging not potent enough to lead as an opener. Fakhar, having the highest T20 score of 91*, needs to remake his initial form on the ground again turning the double figures into a triple. The opening duo knocks will be essential for deciding the fate of the series as Pakistan have failed to cross a might 150 in T20I for the last few games. The side has also fallen short in luck dropping to 4th spot in ICC T20I rankings for teams.

With the opening men to decide the destiny, if Fakhar goes on to the crease, the man needs to keep his consistent forbidding his last ten T20I inning’s stat which has been found disturbing by a vast witness.
