Babar Azam:<\/h3>\n<p>The former Pakistan captain had a decent outing in the 2017 edition, under the captaincy of Sarfraz Ahmed. The right-handed batsman, since then, has gone on to become one of the all-time greats of Pakistan cricket, but is yet to deliver an ICC trophy by being the main man from the front.<\/p>\n<p>A collective effort delivered a memorable ICC Champions Trophy in 2017, and Babar Azam walks into the upcoming edition under severe pressure amid poor form, and will have a big point to prove on home conditions.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Fakhar Zaman:<\/h3>\n<p>The hero of Pakistan in the 2017 Final. It was Fakhar Zaman&#8217;s iconic century, that propelled Pakistan beyond the score of 300, as Indian bowlers were clueless in front of the highly-dangerous left-handed batsman.<\/p>\n<p>After a series of controversies with the Pakistan Cricket Board, the veteran has finally managed to make a cut in the 15-man squad, and will once again, be a huge psychological threat to opposition bowlers.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Faheem Ashraf:<\/h3>\n<p>The curious case of Faheem Ashraf amazes cricket fans, as the all-rounder has not featured regularly for the side over the years, but still manages to make it in-time for the ICC events.<\/p>\n<p>In a new-looking squad, the expertise of an experienced campaigner in the form of Faheem Ashraf will be much-needed for Pakistan.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/news.abplive.com\/sports\/cricket\/babar-azam-fakhar-zaman-faheem-ashraf-feature-pakistan-squad-icc-champions-trophy-2017-2025-1748225\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pakistan CT Squad 2025: Pakistan have announced their 15-man squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, and the squad will be led by Mohammad Rizwan.
