Finally, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced its 15-member squad for the T20 World Cup 2024. The Pakistan cricket team was the only remaining side that hadn’t named their players for the mega-event, which will be played in the USA and the West Indies. As expected, Babar Azam will lead the Men in Green. Meanwhile, there is no clarity on who would be the vice-captain for the side.
Speedster Haris Rauf has also made it to the squad after being out of action since February and having last played a T20I for Pakistan on January 19. Meanwhile, Salman Ali Agha, Hasan Ali, and Mohammad Irfan haven’t been included despite being part of Pakistan’s squad for the 4-match T20 series against England.
