Pakistan would like to put its best foot forward in an attempt to win the upcoming match against Afghanistan, which is a part of the tri-series involving the two teams and the UAE.
Pakistan has decided to retain the core that featured in the last two series against Bangladesh and West Indies, respectively, which means there is no place for Baar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan in the squad.
Fakhar, who returns after recovering from an injury that he sustained during the series against West Indies, will look to get things going in the first match itself.
Middle-order batsmen and all-rounders: Mohammad Haris (wk), Hasan Nawaz, Salman Ali Agha (c), Faheem Ashraf, Hussain Talat, Mohammad Nawaz
Pakistan is expected to go into the match against Afghanistan with depth in the batting order, as the team management has been in favour of stretching the batting at least till number eight.
The presence of Mohammad Nawaz, the spin bowling all-rounder, will help the team achieve the goal of having depth in the batting order with Shaheen Afridi, who can also clear the boundary coming in to bat at number nine.
Bowlers: Shaheen Afridi, Abrar Ahmed, Haris Rauf
Pakistan might have six bowling options in the playing XI for the first match against Afghanistan, which has been the case in the matches that they have played in the recent past.
The responsibility will be on the shoulders of Shaheen Afridi to pick wickets in the first six overs, and he is going to be one of the two specialist fast bowlers, the other one being Haris Rauf.
The team's spin bowling arsenal will consist of Mohammad Nawaz, who will be the senior spinner, and will be partnered by Abrar Ahmed from the other end to complete the spin bowling duo.
