Azam Khan, the young breakout star of Pakistan Super League (PSL) Season 8, has had his hard work pays off.

After facing bullying and criticism, Azam Khan proved himself as a reliable middle order batter in the T20 format by working on his weaknesses.


The young wicket keeper celebrated his success by posting the famous meme “Meri Selection ho gayi hay” in which an aged man is auditioning for Waqar Zaka’s reality show, on his Twitter.

Taking to his Twitter, the 24-year-old cricketer shared the meme expressing his surprise at the board’s decision.

The Islamabad United player, who scored 280 runs in nine matches at a strike-rate of almost 163 in the ongoing eighth edition of the PSL, joked about how he was feeling about his “selection” and received congratulatory messages from his fans and followers on the bird app.

Earlier today, PCB Management Committee Chairperson Najam Sethi said that an opportunity will be given to young players who had performed well in the PSL.
