I hope we see more of him," he added.The 31-year-old cricketer’s career trajectory has been nothing short of remarkable.The year 2024 marked a breakthrough for the all-rounder as he consistently excelled with both bat and ball.Following Babar Azam's resignation, Mohammad Rizwan was named Pakistan's white-ball captain, while Salman Ali Agha appointed as vice-captain.Agha’s leadership potential was further showcased when he captained the team in a three-match T20I series against Zimbabwe.Under his captaincy, Pakistan clinched the series 2-1.His all-round capabilities made him a valuable asset for Pakistan. In nine ODI matches last year, he scored 209 runs and claimed 11 wickets.His performance in the Test format was equally commendable.
