Without these two experienced players, Pakistan will be seen playing in the Asia Cup, which is starting from 9 September in the UAE. Keeping in mind the upcoming T20 World Cup 2026, this time the Asia Cup is being played in T20 format.
It is worth noting that before the Asia Cup, Pakistan will also be seen playing a tri-series against UAE and Afghanistan in the UAE to strengthen its preparations. At the same time, PCB has selected the same team for this tri-series along with the Asia Cup. Salman Ali Agha has been given the command of the team. At the same time, Mohammad Haris has got a place in the team as a wicketkeeper.
