ESPNcricinfo staff20-Jul-2018After Pakistan’s thumping win against Zimbabwe in the second ODI, former captain Ramiz Raja posed a question on Twitter, asking “why isn’t a Pakistan batsman looking for a 200!!”.
Frankly I didn’t enjoy Pak’s win today. it was clinical alrite but colourless..didn’t have any magical moments to savour like a great bowling spell or a 100 off 50 balls. Why isnt a Pakistan batsman looking for a 200!! Why not.. if not against Zim then who against??

On Friday, Ramiz got the answer from Fakhar Zaman.
There it is!

I’m privileged to be in the presence of the world’s greatest clairvoyant; I’ll now check with @iramizraja who’ll win the new season’s @premierleague #ZIMvPAK PS: it may have been one-sided but it’s still a tremendous effort by Fakhar to reach 200. Brilliant… https://t.co/oJT0Ac1ndz
