Top-order batsman Shaiman Anwar and pacer Qadeer Ahmed along with local player Mehardeep Chhayakar were the other three players. The exclusion of the UAE’s trio from the team can prove to be big loss for the team in World Cup qualifiers.
As a replacement, the Emirates team management had called up three players in the likes of Junaid Siddique, Waheed Ahmed and Darius D’Silva. Junaid Siddhique and Waheed Ahmed were named in the squad as medium pacers while D’Silva had been included as the batsman for the warm-up games.
