Here’s Pakistan’s Squad for Bangladesh T20 Series

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has officially announced a 15-member squad for the upcoming three-match T20I series against Bangladesh, scheduled to take place from July 20 to July 24 at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka.

The squad was revealed on Monday, with Salman Ali Agha retaining the captaincy. Pakistan continues its focus on grooming young talent, as seasoned players like Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, and Shaheen Afridi remain absent from the T20 setup.

Pakistan Squad for Bangladesh T20I Series:

• Salman Ali Agha (Captain)

• Mohammad Haris

• Sahibzada Farhan

• Fakhar Zaman

• Saim Ayub

• Hassan Nawaz

• Khushdil Shah

• Hussain Talat

• Mohammad Nawaz

• Faheem Ashraf

• Abrar Ahmed

• Ahmed Daniyal

• Mohammad Abbas Afridi

• Salman Mirza

• Sufyan Muqeem

The squad includes a mix of experienced players and new faces. Ahmed Daniyal has been added to the national squad, while Mohammad Nawaz and Sufyan Muqeem have been recalled, indicating the selectors’ intent to test out emerging and returning players as part of the T20 World Cup 2026 preparation.

The team will be coached by Mike Hesson, with Ashley Noffke (bowling coach), Muhammad Hanif Malik (batting coach), and Shane McDermott (fielding coach) providing expert support.

This series is crucial for players trying to secure a long-term place in the team. With Pakistan focusing on building depth in white-ball cricket, strong performances in this series could open the door to future opportunities, including the upcoming white-ball series against the West Indies, for which the squad will be announced later.

For Salman Ali Agha, it’s another chance to grow as a leader and build team chemistry in unfamiliar conditions.
