For the England and Ireland T20Is, Hasan Ali is back.
For the seven Twenty20 Internationals they will play on their tour of Ireland and England. Pakistan has called up pacer Hasan Ali to their 18-man team. They made a call-up for Salman Ali Agha.
The PCB will select from these eighteen players, according to the Pakistan Cricket Board. We reveal it following the first Twentytwenty international match against England. May 24 is the ICC deadline for the same.
Squad: Irfan, Naseem Shah, Saim Ayub, Salman Ali Agha, Shadab, Shaheen Shah , Usman Khan, Hasan Ali, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Abbas Afridi, Amir, Rizwan, and Babar Azam.
Azam Khan and Haris Rauf, who recently missed the T20I series against New Zealand, are also back in the squad.
Zaman Khan, a pacer and wrist spinner Usama Mir had no place in the team.
After his last twenty overs match for Pakistan, Hasan Ali made a strong return to form in the Pakistan Super League. He took forteen wickets in the league, which was on par with Shaheen and Shadab Khan for the season.
The main reason for including Agha Salman is his ability to spin-bowl on pitches that can be slow in the USA and the Caribbean. In the team, we will pair him with Abrar Ahmed, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, and Shadab Khan. All of whom are spinners.
After being summoned back in the just-finished home series against New Zealand, Muhammad Amir and Wasim kept their berths. They will be eager to provide strong performances in the final four Twenty20 Internationals before the roster reduces to fifteen.
“Building this team was difficult because of the exceptional talent on hand. The Men’s National Selection Committee stated in a PCB announcement that “we have finalized these 18 players after thorough deliberation and consideration of various cricketing aspects.”
So the team has a strong top order that includes Muhammad Irfan Khan, Iftikhar Ahmed, Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Rizwan, Saim Ayub, and Usman Khan. Form an efficient middle order. Imad Wasim, Shadab Khan, and Salman Ali Agha are adaptable all-round players. Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Amir, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, Hasan Ali, and Shaheen Shah Afridi lead the pace battery. Additionally, Abrar Ahmed’s ability to spin the ball.
“We recognize that Usama and Zaman are going to be frustrated. Rightfully so, since they must be eager for their upcoming tours of England and Ireland. They have lengthy careers ahead of them and are excellent cricket players. To be available if needed, they must keep their attention on their cricket.”
So after spending three days in Lahore for a training camp from May 4-6, the team will leave for Dublin on May 7.
