Pakistan pacer Naseem Shah stays with the team to play the ODIs against Sri Lanka despite assailants attacking his family home in his Lower Dir residence. The only good thing was that none of the family members were reported injured.
The Pakistan team largely depends on their three fast bowlers, who are the backbone of their attack, with Abrar Ahmed and Mohammed Nawaz being the sole spinners in the side. However, it cannot be evaded that Saim Ayub has played a very fine hand with the ball in recent times, often bowling with the new ball alongside skipper Shaheen Afridi.
Still, Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi, and Naseem Shah remain the three most sought-after players in the side. Rauf was unfortunately suspended for two games in the South Africa ODI series after the ICC found him guilty with 4 demerit points.
