Pakistan included top-order batter Fakhar Zaman, in their 15-man squad for the Twenty20 World Cup in Australia on Friday.
Zaman will replace spinner Usman Qadir after he suffered a thumb injury.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said Fakhar Zaman is recovering from a knee injury, reports AFP.
In a statement, PCB said, “Pakistan has made one change in their squad for the T20 World Cup Australia with Zaman included in the squad while Qadir will be in the travelling reserves.”
Fakhar Zaman was initially picked as a reserve, while Osman Qadir was in the squad.
