Salman Butt emphasizes Pakistan’s previously unheard-of degree of faith in Saim Ayub.

Despite Saim Ayub’s lackluster performances after multiple opportunities, Salman Butt, the previous opening batsman for Pakistan, has demonstrated the extraordinary level of trust that Pakistani cricket management has placed in him.

Saim, who is twenty-one, has played in eighteen innings and only scored 284 runs at a strike rate of 130.87 and an average of 15.77. Although there was some doubt about his selection for the World Cup team, he was chosen in the end.

Despite Saim Ayub’s ongoing support from the management for the T20 World Cup, Butt—who has 135 caps for Pakistan—emphasized that it is now his obligation to live up to expectations.

Saim Ayub is fortunate because, despite his inability to meet expectations in 20 innings, the management still had faith in him, which is a significant development. Butt posted on his YouTube channel, “I don’t think you’ll ever see a player who was given as many chances in Pakistan’s history.”
