The performance of left-handed explosive batter Fakhar was tremendous in the recently concluded white-ball series against New Zealand. In the T20 series, only one good inning came from his bat, but in the opening and the second of the ODI series, he scored two excellent centuries to lead his team to consecutive victories.

He scored 117 in the first match and followed it up with an unbeaten 180 in the second ODI, which helped Pakistan successfully chase down their second-highest target in ODI history. He scored 361 runs in five innings in April.

“It is truly an honor for me to be named the apex cricket body Player of the Month for April. This month has been one of the highlights of my career and it was an amazing feeling to play in front of my own people in Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Karachi." Fakhar was quoted as saying by Crictracker.

I really enjoyed scoring back-to-back centuries in Rawalpindi, but my favorite was the 180 not out in the second match. I hope to continue the momentum leading into the ODI Men’s Cricket World Cup, and make Pakistan cricket fans happy and proud with my performances.” he added.
