Alam, who returned to Pakistan’s Test setup in 2020 after 11 years, scored an incredible hundred in the second Test against the West Indies. The southpaw battled cramps and sweltering heat on his way to a match-winning ton. In the process, he accumulated four centuries since returning and has five in total.
In an interview with Cricket Pakistan, Alam revealed that playing first-class cricket puts a player under several pressure situations. Hence, the 35-year-old has been conditioned not to panic and sees such circumstances as opportunities. Here’s what he had to say:
Scoring five centuries in five different countries is a thing of honour for me: Fawad Alam
Alam thanked the almighty, and added that he always tries to give his best for Pakistan. The southpaw with an eccentric batting stance hopes to keep delivering compelling performances for as long as he is playing.
With Pakistan not having any Test matches left to play this year, he will likely return to national colours only in 2022.
