NEW DELHI: Former Pakistan wicketkeeper Zulqarnain Haider has expressed his happiness over Mohammad Rizwan’s appointment as Pakistan’s white-ball captain. The 32-year-old wicketkeeper-batter started his captaincy tenure on a winning note, leading Pakistan to a historic series victory in Australia during a three-match ODI series.
After losing the opener at the Melbourne Cricket Ground by two wickets, Pakistan made a strong comeback with commanding victories in the Adelaide and Perth ODIs, sealing the series 2-1. This marked Pakistan’s first series win in Australia since 2002.
