KARACHI: Wicket-keeper batsman Azam Khan hopes that there will be no added pressure of being called ‘Parchi‘ as he will play for Islamabad United in the upcoming Pakistan Super League (PSL) 7. 

Speaking to a local channel, Khan said playing for United will be a whole new opportunity for him. “People used to call me PARCHI because my father was the head coach of Quetta Gladiators,” he said.

“But now I am picked by a different franchise, under a different coaching staff, this is a new experience for me and I’ll surely be free from that added pressure,” the young cricketer added.

Meanwhile, Azam is determined to continue working on his fitness. “I will be focused on my fitness and try to improve every single day. I will play for United as a local wicket-keeper batter and this will provide me a chance to exhibit my talent,” Azam concluded.
