T20 World Cup: Fakhar Zaman To Replace Usman Qadir In Pakistan Squad

By IANS News October 15, 2022 • 08:25 AM View: 897

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announced on Friday that left-handed batter Fakhar Zaman is included in Pakistan's squad for the Men's T20 World Cup, replacing leg-spinner Usman Qadir, who has been moved to the traveling reserves.

The change, as PCB said in an official statement, was necessary as Qadir is yet to recover from a hairline fracture on his right thumb that he suffered during the September 25 T20I against England in Karachi. The leg-spinner will not be available for selection before October 22.
