PCB announces national squad for West Indies ODIs
Team will be led by Babar Azam
Lahore: Pakistan have announced their squad for the three-match ODI series against West Indies, which begins on June 8. The team will be led by Babar Azam.
Asif Afridi, Asif Ali, Haider Ali and Usman Qadir have been dropped from the 16-member squad. The selectors have decided to reduce the number of players because the series will not be played in a Managed Event Environment. Meanwhile, Saud Shakeel was not considered as he is scheduled to undergo a surgery for sinusitis.
Shadab Khan, who missed the Australia ODIs due to an injury, has returned as vice-captain.
The PCB has also stated that the squad will assemble in Rawalpindi on June 1 for a training camp. Haris Rauf, Hasan Ali, Mohammad Rizwan and Shadab Khan, who are currently participating in the English County Championship, will join the squad in time for the practice sessions.
Pakistan squad for West Indies ODIs:
Babar Azam (captain), Shadab Khan (vice-captain), Abdullah Shafique, Fakhar Zaman, Haris Rauf, Hasan Ali, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imam-ul-Haq, Khushdil Shah, Mohammad Haris (wicketkeeper/batter), Mohammad Nawaz, Mohammad Rizwan (wicketkeeper/batter), Mohammad Wasim Junior, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Shahnawaz Dahani and Zahid Mahmood.
