LAHORE – Pakistan on Friday announced the 15 members squad for the three-match ODI series against New Zealand, starting from Abu Dhabi on Nov 7 and 9 and in Dubai on 11.
Fit Imam ul Haq and Junaid Khan have been included in the squad. The national selectors have also included experienced all-rounder, Mohammad Hafeez in the ODI squad after he got a lucky break and was called up as the 18th player for the Tests against Australia.
Pacer Mohammad Amir has been dropped once again. However, injured Fakhar Zaman has been picked up for the crucial ODI series.
The ODI series is important for Pakistan as it languishes at seventh spot in the ICC ODI rankings and fared poorly in the Asia Cup held in UAE in September.
