Ahmed Bashir has been called up to replace the injured Mohammad Wasim Jnr in the Pakistan Shaheens squad for the four-day match against Sri Lanka ‘A’ starting November 18, following Wasim’s injury during the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy.
The Pakistan Shaheens have announced the inclusion of fast bowler Ahmed Bashir in their squad for the upcoming four-day match against Sri Lanka ‘A’, scheduled to commence on Monday, November 18, at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. Bashir’s selection comes as a result of Mohammad Wasim Jnr being unable to participate due to an injury sustained during the second Quaid-e-Azam Trophy match. With this latest injury, Wasim will report to the National Cricket Academy in Lahore for rehabilitation.
The changes in the Pakistan Shaheens squad are significant given the context of the ongoing cricket series against Sri Lanka ‘A’. The Shaheens recently celebrated a victory over Sri Lanka ‘A’ in their first four-day match, winning by seven wickets. This match displayed the prominent performances of players like Mohammad Suleman and Ali Zaryab, which bolstered the team’s morale. However, Wasim Jnr’s injury raises concerns about player fitness and squad continuity during this series.
In summary, the replacement of Mohammad Wasim Jnr by Ahmed Bashir reflects the ongoing challenges faced by the Pakistan Shaheens in maintaining squad integrity amid injuries. As the team prepares for the next match, the performance of the new inclusion will be closely watched as they aim for another victory against Sri Lanka ‘A’. The focus will also be on Wasim’s recovery and eventual return to the squad.
