Dashing Pakistan opener Fakhar Zaman on Monday said he will drop to number three or four in the upcoming T20 International series in New Zealand. “I have received a message from the team management to be ready to bat at one or two-down position as Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan are doing well as openers in T20 format,” left-handed Fakhar told reporters after the end of the penultimate day of the national training camp set up for the ser­ies in New Zealand here at the Gaddafi Stadium on Monday.
“The competition is tough among players for selection and I feel I am lucky that if not included as an opener, I still have a place in the team,” added the 33-year-old said Fakhar, who had the ability to turn around the match with his power-hitting.
