Shehzad is known for his aggressive style of batting and has played some memorable innings for Pakistan, particularly in the shorter formats of the game. One of his most significant contributions to the national team was his performance in the 2017 Champions Trophy, where he scored a crucial 93 runs in the final against India.
However, Shehzad’s career has been plagued by a number of issues, both on and off the field. He has faced disciplinary problems, and in 2018, he was found guilty of a doping violation. He has also struggled with consistency in his performance, which has led to his exclusion from the national team in recent years.
While Shehzad has shown potential as an opening batsman, his inconsistency and off-field issues have prevented him from reaching the level of other legendary Pakistani openers such as Hanif Mohammad, Saeed Anwar, Mudassar Nazar, Aamir Sohail, and Imran Farhat.
