The big-hitter, Asif Ali is not a part of the 15-member squad to contest the World Cup. But both Asif Ali and Mohammad Amir are a part of the squad for England series and could yet feature in the global tournament for Pakistan. Pakistan will finalize their squad on 23rd May after England series.
Pakistan has included the teenage fast-bowling duo of Mohammad Hasnain and Shaheen Shah Afridi, each of whom was born following the turn of the century. The former was rated by Shane Watson as the fastest 18-year-old he'd ever faced during the Pakistan Super League. In Under 19 Cricket World Cup 2018, he has taken 32 wickets in 19 limited-overs internationals, at an average of less than 20.
Abid Ali, Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, Haris Sohail, Imam-ul-Haq and Mohammad Hafeez are included as specialist batsman in the squad. Faheem Ashraf, Imad Wasim, Shadab Khan, and Shoaib Malik are the four all-rounder’s in the squad. Hasan Ali, Junaid Khan, Mohammad Hasnain and Shaheen Shah Afridi will be handling the bowling department in the tournament.
Here’s the 15-member squad.
