Pakistan's T20 World Cup squad has been announced, with several notable inclusions and exclusions. The squad will be led by Babar Azam, who has been in impressive form for Pakistan in recent months.
Among the players included in the squad are Mohammad Amir and Imad Wasim, who both last played in the T20 World Cup in 2016 and 2021 respectively. Abrar Ahmed, Azam Khan, Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Saim Ayub, and Usman Khan have all been picked for their maiden T20 World Cup.
Pakistan has a strong record in the T20 World Cup, having won the tournament in 2009 and reached the final on two other occasions. The team will be hoping to build on their success in the upcoming tournament, which will be held in the USA and the Caribbean.
The squad announcement has been met with mixed reactions from fans and experts. Some have praised the selectors for their bold choices, while others have questioned the omission of certain players.
However, the team has a good mix of experience and youth, and will be confident of making a strong challenge for the title. The tournament will begin on June 1, and Pakistan will be hoping to start their campaign with a win against India.
