The squad management is in fact exploring adjustments for the next ICC World Cup 2023 after Pakistan’s underwhelming performance in the Asia Cup 2023. According to sources, due to their recent performances, Mohammad Haris, Usama Mir, Mohammad Wasim Jr., and Faheem Ashraf might not make the final 15-member roster.
Hassan Ali and Abrar Ahmed, though, appear to have a solid chance of making the squad. Despite doubts about their recent performance, vice captain Shadab Khan and opener Fakhar Zaman are expected to make the World Cup roster.
According to the information available, Pakistan’s potential 15-player World Cup squad could include Babar Azam (c), Imam-ul-Haq, Fakhar Zaman, Abdullah Shafiq, Salman Ali Agha, Iftikhar Ahmed, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Mohammad Nawaz, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf, Hassan Ali, and Zaman Khan.
It’s crucial to remember that the final roster will be chosen based on a number of variables, including individual form, fitness, and team strategy. Before making a choice, the club management would carefully evaluate the players’ skills.
Fans are hopeful that the team will bounce back and deliver an impressive performance in the World Cup, showcasing their talent and determination on the global stage.
