#2 Fakhar Zaman
Fakhar Zaman is a stylish left-handed batsman, whose career has shaped up for the positive since he started opening the batting for Pakistan. One of Zaman's best accomplishment is undoubtedly his century in the 2017 Champions Trophy final that took the game away from India.
Zaman has 1700 runs from 39 ODI games at an average of 48.57 and a strike rate of 98.15. With a solid Indian bowling unit coming against Zaman, he will be banked to get Pakistan off to a top start and ensure that the Men in Green break the World Cup jinx against India.
With the southpaw yet to find his bearings with just 58 runs from three matches, Zaman could well look to regain his lost form against India and r-create some of the magic he created during Pakistan's 2017 CT.
