In the forthcoming series, a few young players will also get the opportunity to make their debut. Salman Agha, Pakistan’s new T20I captain, recently spoke about the team’s youthful players and the opportunity they will have in future international cricket matches. Following the injuries to key hitters Saim Ayub and Fakhar Zaman, who would miss the series, the team made these adjustments. Young players Abdul Samad, Hasan Nawaz, and Muhammad Ali, who have excelled in domestic cricket, will have a fantastic opportunity.
At the pre-match news conference prior to the commencement of the T20I series, Salman Agha stated, “We have some young players in the side, and it is an opportunity for them to showcase their talent at the international level after performing well in domestic cricket.”
Following their dismal Champions Trophy performance, touring team Pakistan will play New Zealand in their next white-ball assignments. In the forthcoming five-match T20I series that begins on Sunday, March 16, the Green Shirts will have an opportunity to establish themselves. A three-match ODI series will also come after it. They will have the opportunity to defeat the Blackcaps at home as well.
Shadab Khan takes over as vice captain when Babar and Rizwan are sacked.
The removal of players like Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam, two of Pakistan’s top stars at the moment, was one of the team’s biggest alterations. In the series against one of the most formidable and unpredictable teams in international cricket, it will be uncommon to miss the two productive batsmen.
The addition of spin-bowling all-rounder Shadab Khan, who has been absent from the team for a while, is another significant development. In addition, the leg-spinner, who was renowned for his cunning and versatility, was selected the series’ vice-captain. It will be intriguing to observe whether the team improves as a result of these adjustments.
