There is not much time left for the Champions Trophy to begin but Pakistan has received bad news before that. This bad news has been given by former captain Shahid Afridi, who revealed in an interview that Saim Ayub's injury is serious and it is almost impossible for him to play in the Champions Trophy. Shahid Afridi said in an interview that he had called Saim Ayub on Wednesday night and after that, he came to know that this player will rest for 3 weeks and after that his recovery will begin.

From the news given by Shahid Afridi on Saim Ayub, it seems that it is impossible for him to be fit before the Champions Trophy. If Saim Ayub does not play, it will be a big setback for Pakistan because this player has scored 2 centuries in his last three ODIs. This player batted explosively on the difficult pitches of Australia and South Africa and this player could have proved to be the trump card of the team in the Champions Trophy but his injury has spoiled everything. Talking about Saim Ayub's performance, in ODIs, this player has scored 515 runs in 9 matches at an average of 64.37. Ayub has 3 centuries to his name and he has also scored a half-century. His strike rate is also more than 100. It is clear that Pakistan will miss such an explosive opener a lot in the Champions Trophy.


If Saim Ayub is not fit, then the Pakistan team can once again make Fakhar Zaman open because the form of their other opener Abdullah Shafiq is very bad. He has been dropped from the team. The good thing about Fakhar Zaman is that he is playing in the International League T20 tournament going on in Dubai. He is getting an idea of ​​the conditions there. Pakistan has to play a match against Team India on 23 March in Dubai.
