Karachi: Pakistan have named a 16-member squad for their upcoming two-match Test series against Sri Lanka expected to be held in July.
The squad is headlined by the return of star pacer Shaheen Afridi, who last featured in the longest format in July 2022 when he suffered a knee injury in a Test against Sri Lanka.
Pakistan have also decided to include two uncapped players in the squad, with batter Mohammad Huraira and all-rounder Aamir Jamal getting call-ups.
Pakistan squad:
Babar Azam (c), Mohammad Rizwan (vc & wk), Aamir Jamal, Abdullah Shafique, Abrar Ahmed, Hasan Ali, Imam-ul-Haq, Mohammad Huraira, Mohammad Nawaz, Naseem Shah, Noman Ali, Salman Ali Agha, Sarfaraz Ahmed (wk), Saud Shakeel, Shaheen Afridi and Shan Masood.
The squad will be led by Babar Azam, who will have the services of fellow stars like Mohammad Rizwan, Abdullah Shafique, Imam-ul-Haq, Hasan Ali and Naseem Shah available at his disposal.
But Babar will undoubtedly be buoyed by the return of his star pacer Afridi in the Test arena.
Pakistan will assemble in Karachi on July 3 for preparations ahead of their scheduled departure on July 9, with the schedule of the tour expected to be announced soon.
The two Test matches will form a part of the ICC World Test Championship 2023-25 cycle for the sides.
