- Fakhar Zaman – 252 runs at an average of 63:
Fakhar Zaman’s inclusion from the game against South Africa instilled an ocean of positivity within the Pakistani setup. His bright and eye catching starts at the top of the order provided the much-needed momentum and he was an ideal folly for someone as solid as Azhar Ali. He saved the best for his last, and it was his superb ton against India in the final which made the difference for Pakistan. It was his strike rate of 113 ultimately which made all the difference.
