Mohammad Rizwan delivered a resounding comeback in domestic cricket following a controversial England tour. On the second day of the Quaid-i-Azam Trophy Gold tournament, the wicketkeeper-batter scored an unbeaten double century of 200 off 252 balls, hitting 35 fours and a six. This innings put Peshawar Blues in a strong position against Faisalabad, as they declared at 503 for four in 115.2 overs after resuming at 306 for three.
Rizwan's innings marked his second double century in first-class cricket, a significant personal milestone after a lean period in England, where he scored just 61 runs in four innings. Pakistan Cricket Board cleared him to resume domestic cricket soon after.
