Pakistan in NZ: Babar-Rizwan dropped for T20Is with Agha captain?


No Shaheen for ODIs?







Shadab Khan returns to the T20I side as vice-captain.



Pakistan have shuffled the deck once more in an attempt to find the right T20I combination,without Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam for the five-match series against New Zealand.

In the first squad announced since Pakistan's humiliated exit from a home Champions Trophy. there are several changes, return of Shadab Khan and also appointed vice-captain, and the awarding T20I captaincy to Rizwan's deputy Salman Agha. On the ODI side, Rizwan retains his captaincy, but Shaheen Afridi has been dropped.


According to a PCB release, Mohammad Haris returns after an extended spell out of the national side and Saim Ayub remains absent with the ankle injury he picked up in South Africa. Hasan Nawaz, the 22-year old wicketkeeper who has played just 21 T20s, is in the squad. Abdul Samad, the 27-year-old big-hitting batter who is also yet to play PSL cricket, comes in after a positive domestic T20 tournament showing. Quetta Gladiators batter Omair Yousuf earns a call-up as Pakistan pivot.
