Azam Khan of Islamabad United stole the show in the eighth season of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) versus Quetta Gladiators.

Khan destroyed the Gladiators, who dropped their fourth straight game, scoring a scorching 97 runs.

Addressing the media following the master blaster knock, Khan revealed that the Gladiators’ head coach Moin Khan had commanded him.

The hard-hitting hitter said, “When I saw him after the game, he applauded my innings and asked me to keep playing.”

“My greatest motivation is my father. In spite of all the odds, he constantly supported me and gave me the mental fortitude to perform well. He already informed me of the criticism and assisted me in fending it off. I hope to continue making dad proud “Added he.

The right-handed batsman hit nine boundaries and eight maximums while scoring 97 runs in just 42 balls.

He was helpful. In the final five overs, United scored 92 runs. His impressive strike percentage of 230.95 led United to the highest score in this event, 220-6.

The little batter gave his parents, who were in the stadium watching the game, credit for his game-winning hit. Khan, who has played for Pakistan in three T20 Internationals, claimed he is well enough to do so.

“I make an effort to take advantage of any chance I get. I’m in decent shape and ready to play for Pakistan whenever the chance arises “Finally, he said.
