Fakhar Zaman made his debut for Pakistan last year against South Africa at Edgbaston. Since then, he has been prolific for Pakistan cricket team in the ODIs. He boasts a career average of 57.95 from his 26 matches. Since he opens the batting, he doesn't have the leverage of having many not-outs to boosts his batting average.

The left-handed opener came to spotlight in the Champions Trophy finals against their arch-rivals India. He scored a match-winning 124 runs from 106 balls helping Pakistan to clinch the 2nd biggest ODI trophy in the game.

Zaman, who averaged 44.44 in 2017, improved his performance drastically scoring 1275 runs in 2018. He is currently having an average of 67.31 in 2018 and will definitely feature in the best ODI team of this year.
