Pakistan have made changes in their initial T20 World Cup squad and they announced the addition of Haider Ali, Fakhar Zaman, and Sarfaraz Ahmed. Sarfaraz and Ali replaced Azam Khan and Mohammad Hasnain respectively, while Fakhar, who was first named as a traveling reserve, has swapped places with Khushdil Shah.

Shoaib Malik was also included in the squad after Sohaib Maqsood’s lower back problem. He had undergone MRI scans after which the decision was taken by PCB. 

Pakistan, who are part of Group 2, will start their campaign against India on 24 October at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
