ISLAMABAD: Pakistan's rising sensation Fatima Sana has been selected by the International Cricket Council (ICC) among four other players as 100% Cricket Superstars. This forms part of the ICC's ongoing 100% Cricket movement, which celebrates the abundant talent on offer in the women's game.

"Following the recent conclusion of the historic inclusion of women's cricket at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, the excitement is growing ahead of another inaugural global event in the ICC U19 Women's T20 World Cup in South Africa in January, which is followed closely by the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2023, also in South Africa," said Wasim Khan, ICC General Manager Cricket.

"The players selected today are incredibly talented and a credit to the countries they represent. They are the future of the women's game. Meanwhile, at only 20, Fatima has already emerged as one of the most promising prospects in Pakistan women's cricket. Her contributions have already seen her claim some major honours, being named the 2021 ICC Women's Emerging Cricketer of the Year.
