Pakistani cricketers, Rohail Nazir and Muaz Sadaqat have been called up to the Pakistan Shaheens squad for the ACC Emerging Teams Asia Cup.
With Mehran Mumtaz, a promising left-arm spinner, and wicketkeeper-batter Haseebullah Khan being elevated to the Test team alongside Kamran Ghulam and Noman Ali, the Shaheens squad required reinforcements. Rohail Nazir, a talented wicketkeeper-batter with leadership experience, and Muaz Sadaqat, an emerging all-rounder, were seemingly the perfect players to step up.
Nazir has previously captained Pakistan at the Under-19 level and brings valuable experience and depth to the squad. He has already displayed his potential in domestic cricket and is seen as a future asset for Pakistan cricket. Sadaqat has also represented Pakistan at Under-19 level and is seen as a rising star known for his solid batting and occasional contributions with the ball.
Their inclusion will replenish the Pakistan Shaheens squad as they aim to make a strong impression in the Asia Cup. The PCB hopes that these call-ups will increase the depth of talent in Pakistan’s cricketing ranks, with young players stepping up to international challenges.
The Shaheens will face rivals India A in their opening match of the tournament in Oman, which will take place on the 19th of October.
