Major names such as Shadab Khan, Fakhar Zaman, and Imam ul Haq have been sidelined while Salman Ali Agha has earned a place in all four squads. Like Fakhar and Imam, Hasnain wasn’t a part of Pakistan’s central contract but earned a recall on the back of an impressive domestic outing as he was named the Player of the Tournament in the Champions One Day Cup.
In a piece of fresh news, wrist spinner Sufiyan Muqeem has been added as a traveling reserve for both the T20I series while off-spin bowling all-rounder Qasim Akram has been added for the Zimbabwe series. On the contrary, Pakistan Shaheens wicketkeeper Mohammad Haris has been left out after poor numbers and Saim Ayub is a part of the ODIs.
The bilateral ODI series against Australia and Zimbabwe will serve as a preparatory measure for the upcoming 2025 Champions Trophy while the T20Is will act as a platform to strengthen their bench for next World Cup in 2026.
