The Asia Cup 2025 is set to begin on 9 September in Dubai, and with the tournament just around the corner, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has declared its squad.
In a surprising move, Babar Azam and wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan have been left out of the team.
On the other hand, Pakistan’s bowling attack will continue to rely on the experience of Shaheen Shah Afridi, Hasan Ali, and Haris Rauf. The high-voltage clash between India and Pakistan is scheduled for 14 September, a fixture that remains the most anticipated contest of the competition.
Pakistan squad for Asia Cup 2025: Salman Ali (C), Abrar, Faheem, Fakhar, Rauf, Hasan Ali, Hasan Nawaz, Talat, Khushdil Shah, Haris (WK), Nawaz, Waseem Jnr, Farhan, Saim Ayub, Salman Mirza, Shaheen, Sufyan Moqim.
