BIG Setback For Pakistan; INJURED Fakhar Zaman to Miss India vs Pakistan ICC Champions Trophy 2025 Clash - REPORT

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Pakistan cricketer Fakhar Zaman is an aggressive batter and has also been in form lately, but will he miss the India game in Dubai? Reports claim that the left-handed opener is ruled out of CT 2025. On Wednesday, during the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 opener in Karachi versus New Zealand, Fakhar picked up an injury while trying to stop a boundary. After that, he left the field. But then, in the death overs - he was back. He fielded for a while, but could not open. He walked into bat at No. 4 and seemed to be struggling with his injury. He could not run well and neither could he be the cricketer he is. His painful stay lasted 28 balls. He scored a breezy 42 before being dismissed. His knock was laced with four boundaries.

BLACKCAPS HUMILIATE PAKISTAN

New Zealand won the CT 2025 opener comfortably by 60 runs to get their campaign off to a winning start. The Men in Green seem to have been lacking the intent in their batting while chasing 321 in Karachi. Pakistan, who have already lost a game, would take on India in a do-or-die game in Dubai knowing very well that their campaign could end if they lose. The match against India will take place on February 23.
