Pakistan's Fakhar Zaman, Shadab Khan makes historic career achievement

ISLAMABAD - Pakistan opening batsman Fakhar Zaman and Shadab Khan have made historic achievement in their career.

Duo have made significant gains as the International Cricket Council (ICC) released updated rankings for players in ODIs.

Zaman achieved a career-best ranking from the series in the UAE, which ended at one-all after the decider in Dubai was washed out. The left-handed opener had scores of 1, 88 and 65, which have lifted him six places to 11th in the latest rankings. ------------------------------

Similarly, Shadab Khan achieved a career-high bowling ranking. The wrist spinner bagged six wickets in the series, including four for 38 in the second match, to vault 16 places to 24th position. Both players have been rested for the upcoming three-match Test series.

Shaheen Afridi, who made his debut just two months back during Asia Cup 2018, took nine wickets in the series and won the Player of the Series Award. He has moved an astonishing 66 places to the top, and now sits just outside the top-100 rankings at 118th position.
