5 reasons why Pakistan can win the 2019 World Cup 

#4 Fakhar Zaman's presence at the top of the order

Fakhar Zaman has proven his ability to perform on the big stage

Few have replicated the sort of impact Fakhar Zaman has had on the Pakistani team. When he plays well, his team generally does well. The left-hander averages a staggering 57.95 in ODIs at a strike rate of 97.70.

Fakhar, though, hasn't been the most consistent batsman over the last few months but that has to do with the conditions he has played in. A player who likes the ball to come onto his bat, he has never felt at home in Abu Dhabi or Dubai.

The tide, however, turns when we head to England. With the ball coming onto the bat on better paced pitches, Fakhar can become a lethal threat once again. Since the 2015 World Cup, England has been home to record-shattering totals. Pakistan will hope that their star opener is in sparkling form for the big tournament.
