A final squad for the 2025 Champions Trophy has been decided by the national selection committee for Pakistan.
The team will play in the forthcoming Tri-Nation Series on behalf of Pakistan as well. Pakistan’s Champions Trophy opener against New Zealand is scheduled on February 19 in Karachi. The final announcement is anticipated within a few days after the squad list was submitted to Mohsin Naqvi, the chairman of the PCB, for approval.
Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Rizwan, Babar Azam, Salman Ali Agha, Khushdil Shah, Kamran Ghulam, Abrar Ahmed, Sufiyan Maqeem, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf, and Naseem Shah are players on the final squad. Additionally, Tayyab Tahir, Abbas Afridi, and Mohammad Hasnain might be added.
Saim Ayub is anticipated to be replaced by Khushdil Shah, an in-form batter who made an impression in the Bangladesh Premier League, according to reports.
There is little chance that Shan Masood will make the Champions Trophy team, but Imam-ul-Haq has a good chance.
