I am waiting to see both Sharjeel and Fakhar opening together both are in great form and both can trouble African bowlers.

But...Rizwan will open in T20I. He is batting very well as an opener in T20I. Babar needs to bat at no. 3 or no. 4 position. It will give stability for the middle order. :yes

I think he should bat at no.3 because Fakhar and Sharjeel opening pair can be dangerous for bowlers.

Or maybe Rizu should bat at no.5 because Haider is a new young player he can do well and Babar can't play at no.5 he could play at no.4 so i think there is no place for Rizwan that's why he could play no.5

Fakhar and Sharjeel isn't a realistic opening pair. If they open, that will mean Babar and Rizwan go to #3 and #4, Hafeez at #5 and Haider at #6. All 4 of these players will be batting a little too low. Sharjeel's fitness, running and fielding is poor too. My XI would be:

Fakhar Zaman
Babar Azam/Rizwan
Rizwan/Babar
Mohammad Hafeez
Haider Ali
Danish Aziz
Faheem Ashraf
Nawaz/Qadir
Hasan Ali
Shaheen Afridi
Haris Rauf

I think Sharjeel can bat at middle order also because our middle order is really weak.

Then....he might get chance with Rizwan. Fakhar will not get any chances now. He needs rest now, others can play this T20I series. :D
Our team will include him in the playing 11 until he gets injured or something else.

He could play the role of Ishan Kishan is doing right now for India. :D
Fakhar can't be trusted he played same knock in champions trophy final and in Zimbabwe series then he had a very bad time. But i hope carries his good form.

That would be a terrible idea. Would completely negate his strength against pacers in the Powerplay, and expose him to spinners in the middle overs.

If Sharjeel open the innings, spinners will bowl in the powerplay. Bjorn Fortuin or Wihan Lubbe can get him. Both the left-handers will not play. :yes
