Islamabad United’s wicket-keeper-batter Azam Khan on Friday said that his father — the head coach of Quetta Gladiators Moin Khan — praised him for scoring 97 runs, in the 13th match of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) eighth edition.
While talking to the media after the remarkable performance in the stadium, Azam Khan said: “When I met him [Moin Khan] after the match, he praised my innings and asked me to continue performing”.
Azam Khan thrashed the Gladiators who lost their fourth game out of five PSL 2023 matches.
Taking to Twitter, Pakistan’s former national cricket team Captain Shahid Afridi also praised Azam Khan on his game-play. He wrote: Well played [Azam Khan] boom boom innings, fearless [PSL8]”.
Azam Khan said that “my father is my biggest inspiration.” He also said “he made me mentally so strong and always backed me to perform well despite all the odds. He already told me about the criticism and helped me fight against it.” —Agencies
