The wicketkeeper reflects on his struggles and hopes for a comeback.
In a candid moment after Rawalpindiz’s latest defeat in the PSL, Mohammad Rizwan laid bare his thoughts on his place in the Pakistan squad, admitting he doesn’t deserve it currently. With just 107 runs in 7 innings, the wicketkeeper's form has been a massive concern. Rizwan’s struggle to accelerate the innings has him questioning his own position, a sentiment he shared openly with the press.
"When I was playing in the Big Bash, I said I didn’t deserve a spot based on my performances," Rizwan revealed, acknowledging the criticism he has faced. His honesty is refreshing, but it highlights the pressure cooker that is international cricket, especially when you're leading a team that’s at the bottom of the PSL table with zero wins.
Despite the bleak outlook, Rizwan remains hopeful for a turnaround. He emphasised that he won't lose hope or retire from T20 cricket. The fight isn't over yet, and with his experience, he might just find a way to rediscover his form. Meanwhile, Pakistan has shown resilience, progressing to the Super 8s in the T20 World Cup without him, showcasing the depth of talent within the squad.
Can Rizwan turn things around before it’s too late? All eyes will be on him as he seeks redemption in his next outings.
