The right-handed batsman scored 239 runs in nine innings at an average of 29.87 representing Peshawar Zalmi in the tournament. Pakistan legend, while speaking in a YouTube video, advised the 19-year-old to improve his technique in order to stand among the greats of the game. “Haider Ali plays too many shots and needs better shot selection. If he wants to improve his overall game then he needs to work on his technique,” said Yousaf. “It is easy to slog as anyone can slog. You are either successful or miss out when you are trying to smash every ball out of the park.” The 45-year-old suggested that Haider should try to adapt batting approach from successful players like Virat Kohli, Steve Smith and Babar Azam. “Haider needs to follow the likes of Kohli, Smith and Babar Azam,” he said. “Look where Babar has reached in three years of international cricket. He is not a slogger but a proper player, who plays proper cricket. His strike rate is above 130 and his average is 50, which is why he is the number one Twenty20 (T20) player and top five in One-day Internationals (ODIs) and Tests.” “When your technique is solid and your basics are correct, then you can perform in any format,” he added.
