The selection committee, head coach Jason Gillespie, and captain Shan Masood have started talking about Pakistan’s Test team for the August series against Bangladesh.
They are thinking about resting important members of the white-ball team, namely Shaheen Shah Afridi, Babar Azam, and Mohammad Rizwan. Moreover, Haris Rauf is not being evaluated for this series. Salman Ali Agha, Sarfaraz Ahmed, Abdullah Shafique, and Saud Shakeel are some of the players being considered for the team.
The selection committee is assessing Naseem Shah, Shahnawaz Dahani, Mir Hamza, Khurram Shahzad, and Aamir Jamal for the fast bowling lineup. The squad is thinking of using these bowlers to bolster its pace attack.
The purpose of the selection talks is to strike a balance for the squad by giving certain important players a break and other up-and-coming players a chance. The intention is to assemble a formidable and competitive team that will be capable of winning the Test series against Bangladesh. Additionally, by managing player workloads, this strategy will keep players fit for upcoming games.
