ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Pakistan’s Fakhar Zaman confident of international comeback
The HinduFakhar Zaman is confident of returning to international cricket after eight months when Pakistan hosts next month’s Champions Trophy. Fakhar hasn’t played international cricket since Pakistan’s first-round exit from the T20 World Cup last June and subsequently missed out on central contract with the Pakistan Cricket Board for the first time in eight years. “People don’t know that after the T20 World Cup I got sick,” Fakhar explained to the Vipers Voices podcast as he prepared to play ILT20 for Desert Vipers in the United Arab Emirates.
