Shaheen Afridi has been named in Pakistan's squad for their Twenty20 and one-day international series against New Zealand, the country's cricket board (PCB) said on Tuesday, with the fast bowler having recovered from a knee injury.
Afghanistan vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Highlights: Led by a spirited bowling display, Afghanistan stunned Pakistan once again in the second T20I by seven wickets in Sharjah and clinched a first series win over their opponents. Chasing a below-par total of 131, Afghanistan crossed the finishing with seven wickets and one ball to spare. Earlier, top knocks from Imad Wasim and Shadab Khan guided Pakistan to 130 for 6 in 20 overs. Opting to bat, Pakistan faced an early blow after Fazalhaq Farooqi dismissed Saim Ayub for a duck on the second ball of the innings. He then trapped Abdullah Shafique LBW on the very next delivery to take Afghanistan to a dream start. Pakistan kept on losing wickets at regular intervals but imad Wasim's 64 not out off 57 and Shadab's 32 off 25 took them to respectable total. (SCORECARD)
Tearaway pacer Ihsanullah enjoyed a breakthrough season in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) earlier this year. The 20-year-old picked 22 wickets in 12 matches, and was rewarded with a Pakistan call-up for the ongoing three-match T20I series against Afghanistan. On his debut, Ihsanullah lived up to his hype, scalping two wickets with the new ball to dent Afghanistan's run chase. Ahead of his debut, Ihsanullah spoked about his journey as a cricketer and how he is going to fulfill the dream of his parents by representing Pakistan.
The ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL) has seem some great performances. With the prevalence of pacers in cricket in the country, it is all but natural that the speed merchants have grabbed the limelight. From the unheralded Ihsanullah to the talented Naseem Shah, there have been quite a few memorable performances. On Monday night too, pacers Mohammad Hasnain (3/13 in four overs) and Naseem Shah (1/19 in four overs) delivered a great show for Quetta Gladiators against the Babar Azam-led Peshawar Zalmi. However, despite the duo performance, Peshawar chased down a 155-run target in 18.3 overs.
Pakistan cricket team fast bowler Naseem Shah was fined 10 per cent of his match fees for hearing the wrong helmet during the Pakistan Super League (PSL) match between Quetta Gladiators and Multan Sultans. Naseem, who is currently playing for the Gladiators, was penalised under the PCB Code of Conduct as he was wearing the helmet of Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) side Comilla Victorians – the franchise that Naseem also plays for. Naseem's short stay at the crease was ended by the Sultans pacer Ihsanullah whose five-wicket haul proved decisive as the Gladiators were defeated comprehensively.
KARACHI : Pakistan captain Babar Azam is dejected by the team's winless home season but refuses to blame players' injuries or unresponsive pitches for their lean run.
LAHORE, Pakistan : Pakistan's Naseem Shah has recovered from a shoulder issue and is ready to return to the side for their two-test home series against New Zealand but fellow quicks Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf remain sidelined with injuries.
Pakistan's openers got among the runs on a placid pitch Friday as they took the home team to 181 without loss in reply to England's mammoth 657 in the first Test in Rawalpindi.
