<p>The reports of the fitness test organised by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) are out now. Young batter Azam Khan struggled to find his way in the fitness test before eventually failing, while Irfanullah Khan Niazi remained the top performer in the test.</p>



<p>The PCB held a training-cum fitness camp for 29 players, who are on the list of probable to feature in the T20 World Cup 2024, at the Kakul Academy in Abbottabad. On the second day of the fitness camp, Pakistan Cricket underwent a fitness evaluation with a basic 2-kilometer run.</p>



<p>As per the details available, Irfanullah Khan Niazi led the 29-men Pakistani contingent under a record time - 6 minutes and 47 seconds. Senior wicketkeeper batter Mohammad Rizwan, who was one of the participants, completed the run in 8 minutes and 26 seconds.</p>



<p>However, Azam Khan, who is known as one of the bright prospects for Pakistan Cricket, returned with poor figures. Azam Khan couldn't go beyond 1.5 kilometres in the prescribed 2-kilometre run. He took 20 minutes to cover 1.5 kilometres before eventually stopping.</p>



<p>Other notable names, who took part in the fitness test were Naseem Shah, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Mohammad Harris, Agha Salman and Mohammad Amir among others. Meanwhile, a handful of players have skipped the test.</p>



<p>Babar Azam was not available for the evaluation as he was in Saudi Arabia and is expected to join his mates on Thursday. Fakhar Zaman and Haris Rauf didn't participate as the two were recovering from their injuries while Imad Wasim pulled out due to a potential knee injury.</p>



<p>The complete details of Pakistan's Fitness Test are provided below:</p>



<p>Azam Khan:&nbsp;20 minutes for 1.5 Kilometers<strong><br></strong>Mohammad Wasim Jr: 8 minutes and 27 seconds<br>Mohammad Haris: 8 minutes and 27 seconds<br>Mohammad Rizwan: 8 minutes and 26 seconds<br>Naseem Shah: 8 minutes and 27 seconds<br>Haseebullah: 8 minutes and 27 seconds<br>Shaheen Afridi: 8 minutes and 37 seconds<br>Agha Salman: 9 minutes and 20 seconds<br>Mehran Mumtaz: 8 minutes and 30 seconds<br>Mohammad Amir: 9 minutes and 30 seconds<br>Shadab Khan: 9 minutes and 56 seconds<br>Mohammad Nawaz: 9 minutes and 57 seconds</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Mohammad Amir, Imad Wasim takes Retirement U-turn</strong></h2>

<p>Notably, the fitness camp organised by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) was also participated by veteran bowlers Mohammad Amir and Imad Wasim. The two aforementioned players reversed their retirement decision to make themselves available for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024 in the West Indies and the USA.</p>



<p>Interestingly, PCB named both of them in the list of 29 players shortlisted for a training camp at Kakul Academy in Abbottabad. The other players who were included in the list are:</p>



<p>Babar Azam, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Fakhar Zaman, Sahibzada Farhan, Saim Ayub,&nbsp;Saud Shakeel, Imad Wasim, Haseebullah, Salman Ali Agha,&nbsp;Azam Khan, Mohammad Haris, Irfan Khan Niazi,&nbsp;Shadab Khan, Mohammad Rizwan, Usama Mir, Mohammad Nawaz, Mohammad Abbas Afridi,&nbsp;Abrar Ahmed, Naseem Shah, Mehran Mumtaz, Hasan Ali, Mohammad Ali, Iftikhar Ahmed, Mohammad Wasim Jnr, Aamir Jamal, Zaman Khan, Usman Khan, Haris Rauf and Mohammad Amir</p>

Pakistan's Fitness Test Reports: Azam FAILED, Rizwan, Shaheen Passed, Complete Fitness Test Report

pakistans-fitness-test-reports-azam-failed-rizwan-shaheen-passed-complete-fitness-test-report

<p><strong>PAK vs NZ 2nd T20I: </strong>In a big injury blow for Pakistan amidst their T20I series against New Zealand, wicketkeeper batter Azam Khan has been ruled out of the remainder of the ongoing T20 leg. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), on Saturday, confirmed the development advising Azam to rest for a few days.</p>



<p>Notably, Azam Khan looked in some discomfort during one of the practice sessions ahead of the PAK vs NZ T20I series. He seemed to have some trouble in his right calf as he trained at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. </p>



<p>The 25-year-old batter was subsequently sent for the radiology reports to check for any injuries. The radiology reports confirmed a grade one tear on his right calf muscle.</p>



<p>?Azam Khan has been advised to undergo a 10-day rest following radiology reports confirming a Grade One tear of his right calf muscle,? the PCB said in a statement.</p>



<p>As a result of the tear, Azam Khan will not be able to partake in any of the action between Pakistan and New Zealand in the ongoing five-match T20I series, which began on April 18 at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. </p>



<p>Azam Khan is, soon, expected to bid goodbye to his mates at the national men's team and report at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) where he will continue his rehabilitation under the watchful eyes of the medical staff.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>PAK vs NZ 2nd T20I: New Zealand lose 3 wickets against Pakistan</strong></h2>

<p>The second of the five T20I fixtures between Pakistan and New Zealand is currently underway at the Pindi Cricket Stadium. </p>



<p>After opting to bowl first, Pakistan have damaged Pakistan's top order with three quick wickets in the powerplay itself.</p>



<p>While Shaheen Shah Afridi removed wicketkeeper batter Tim Siefert in the second over, Mohammad Amir got a twin strike as he dismissed Tim Robinson and Dean Foxcroft in his successive overs.</p>



<p>As things currently stand, in the seventh over, New Zealand have scored 42 runs after losing three wickets. </p>



<p>Notably, the<a href="https://www.pcb.com.pk/"> PAK vs NZ</a> 1st T20I ended with no result as the rain ultimately played spoilsport. Only two balls could be possible during the entire fixture, which saw Shaheen Shah Afridi dismissing Tim Robinson at a nought. </p>

PAK vs NZ 2nd T20I: Big Injury Blow for Pakistan, Azam RULED OUT of New Zealand T20I series

pak-vs-nz-2nd-t20i-big-injury-blow-for-pakistan-azam-ruled-out-of-new-zealand-t20i-series

<p>Before the start of the 2024 T20 World Cup, disappointing news has emerged for the Pakistani team and fans. The Pakistani star wicketkeeper batsman, Azam Khan, known for his power hitting batting ability, has been ruled out of the ongoing five-match series against Pakistan and New Zealand.</p>



<p>According to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), he has been advised to rest for 10 days. In fact, he suffered a Grade One tear in his right calf muscle during the practice session of the ongoing five-match T20 series against New Zealand.</p>



<p>Currently Azam Khan is in the National Cricket Academy (NCA) where the PCB medical team is keeping an eye on him.</p>



<p>Missing this series can prove to be very harmful for Azam. Because he is one of the strong contenders for the 2024 T20 World Cup. Before the T20 World Cup, Pakistan will tour Ireland and England. Pakistan will play a three-match T20 match against Ireland, while a four-match T20 series will be played against England.</p>



<p>Currently, Pakistan has taken a 1-0 lead in the ongoing five-match T20 series against New Zealand. The first match was canceled due to rain.</p>

PAK vs NZ: Pakistan's Star Wicketkeeper Ruled out of New Zealand Series

pak-vs-nz-pakistans-star-wicketkeeper-ruled-out-of-new-zealand-series

<p><strong>IRE vs PAK 2nd T20I:</strong> An aggressive approach by Pakistan was cool to watch against Ireland in the PAK vs IRE 2nd T20I. Fakhar Zaman and Mohammad Rizwan came up with the best of their forms and Pakistan defeated Ireland in the second T20I to level the 3-match T20I series.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><h2><strong>Table of Contents</strong></h2><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#ire-vs-pak-2nd-t-20-i-match-summary">IRE vs Pak 2nd T20I Match Summary</a></li><li class=""><a href="#ire-vs-pak-3rd-t-20-i-details">IRE vs PAK 3rd T20I details</a></li><li class=""><a href="#ire-vs-pak-head-to-head-record">IRE vs PAK Head-to-Head Record</a></li></ul></nav></div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ire-vs-pak-2nd-t-20-i-match-summary"><strong>IRE vs Pak 2nd T20I Match Summary</strong></h2>



<p> The visitors won the toss at first and asked Ireland to bat first. Ireland welcomed the decision and thumped 29 runs in 3 overs but an excellent over by Shaheen Shah took the momentum away from the home side. He knocked out skipper Stirling and last match hero Balbirnie in the same over. </p>



<p>Lorcan Tucker and Harry Tector combined to bridge the innings further where the wicketkeeper batter Tucker smacked 51 off 34 balls. They were 165 for 7 down with just 9 balls left in the game and then Gareth Delany showed up his superior class with bat and posted 26 runs in the 7 he played. Following the brilliant finish, Ireland asked Pakistan to chase 194 to level the series.</p>



<p>It was a horrific start for Pakistan with Saim Ayub and Babar Azam going back to the pavilion within the first 10 balls of the chase with just 13 runs on the board. Rizwan and Fakhar took charge and started thrashing the Irish bowlers. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/05/ZAMAN.jpg" alt="IRE vs PAK: Pakistan Dominated Ireland as Pakistani Batting Powerhouse Levels Series By 7-Wicket Win." class="wp-image-134077" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Fakhar Zaman stole the show (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<p>Rizwan smashed a 34-ball fifty whereas Fakhar got an even faster 30-ball fifty that took Pakistan in a much comfortable position. Zaman went flying fast after his 50 and lost his wicket after a quick 78 off 40 balls. Azam Khan came up and came up with an absolute banger as he smashed 4 sixes to reach 30 off just 10 balls. </p>



<p>Pakistan chased up the target within 17 overs and that lays a mark on their day, Pakistan's batting lineup can be one of the most brutal lineups you could ever face. Pakistan won the match by 7 wickets.</p>

IRE vs PAK: Pakistan Dominated Ireland as Pakistani Batting Powerhouse Levels Series By 7-Wicket Win.

ire-vs-pak-pakistan-dominated-ireland-as-pakistani-batting-powerhouse-levels-series-by-7-wicket-win

<p><strong>ENG vs PAK 1st T20I: </strong>The Pakistan Cricket Team is on a tour of England for a four-match T20I series just a couple of weeks before the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 and the tour is set to start on 22 March at Headingley, Leeds. Here we are with Pakistan Playing For The 1st T20I Against England Prediction.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#pakistan-playing-for-the-eng-vs-pak-1st-t-20-i-prediction">Pakistan Playing For The ENG vs PAK 1st T20I Prediction</a><ul><li class=""><a href="#pakistan-squad-for-england-t-20-i-series">Pakistan Squad For England T20I Series</a></li></ul></li><li class=""><a href="#pakistan-probable-playing-11-for-eng-vs-pak-1st-t-20-i">Pakistan Probable Playing 11 For ENG vs PAK 1st T20I</a></li></ul></nav></div>



<p>Pakistan had a couple of T20I series before their clash against England and they have done a pretty satisfying job in those series. They drew the home T20I series against New Zealand and then won the three-match T20I series in Ireland 2-1. Riding on those powerpack performances, Pakistan will be a confident side coming to this series.</p>



<p>Let's check out the predicted Pakistan Playing For The 1st T20I Against England:</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="pakistan-playing-for-the-eng-vs-pak-1st-t-20-i-prediction"><strong>Pakistan Playing For The <strong>ENG vs PAK 1st T20I</strong> Prediction</strong></h2>



<p>First and foremost, Pakistan announced a balanced squad for the Ireland and England tour. The Squad consists of a group of world-class batters, a group of even better bowlers, and a couple of all-rounders. Below is the full squad of Pakistan for T20Is in ENGLAND:</p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="pakistan-squad-for-england-t-20-i-series"><strong>Pakistan Squad For England T20I Series</strong></h4>



<p><strong><em>Babar Azam (c), Mohammad Rizwan, Fakhar Zaman, Haris Rauf, Abrar Ahmed, Azam Khan, Hasan Ali, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Amir, Muhammad Irfan Khan, Naseem Shah, Saim Ayub, Salman Ali Agha, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Usman Khan.</em></strong></p>



<p>Pakistan have invested and seem to be interested in Saim Ayub a lot in the T20I format. This young kid has impressed a lot in the domestic T20 circuit but is yet to explode in the Internationals. He will get a company of experienced Mohammad Rizwan to open the innings and hopefully, this opening duo will work for Pakistan.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/04/Saim-Ayub.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-128978" /></figure>



<p>They have one of the best number three in the world in the form of Babar Azam and the skipper is in pretty good form. Fakhar Zaman and Babar Azam have got the skills and power to accumulate big runs in the middle overs after Powerplay. </p>



<p>PCB have shown interest in Azam Khan. The big boy Khan has a special ability to smash any ball out of the park and he is a good player of pace. His power game should give Pakistan the command to go blazing in the death overs.</p>



<p>To provide stability in the middle order, Agha Salman might make his way to the playing 11. His number might not be much impressive in the T20Is but he showed promising character in the PSL 2024.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/05/ifti-1.jpg" alt="ENG vs PAK 1st T20I: Pakistan Playing For The 1st T20I Against England Prediction | Full Squads | Pakistan Tour of England 2024" class="wp-image-134334" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Iftikhar Ahmed (API)</figcaption></figure>



<p>Another power-hitter in the contingent is Iftikhar Ahmed. Iftikhar has already won his spurs on the international stage in the shortest format of the game. He is a one-of-a-kind player who can flip the sides with his bat in any given circumstances.</p>



<p>Imad Wasim has made his comeback to the international side and this time he looks more promising with the bat in his hands. He got absolute control with the ball in the Ireland series and he can swing some really big SIXES as well. Shadab Khan, a player with similar capabilities alike Imad Wasim is also in the lineup. These two provide the long batting options to the team and provide additional help to Azam Khan or Iftikhar Ahmed in the death overs.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/05/Naseem-Shah-Shaheen-Afridi-1.jpg" alt="ENG vs PAK 1st T20I: Pakistan Playing For The 1st T20I Against England Prediction | Full Squads | Pakistan Tour of England 2024" class="wp-image-134335" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Naseem Shah and Shaheen Shan</figcaption></figure>



<p>Then the duo of Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah is pretty certain to take part and spearhead the bowling unit. They both are in absolute red-hot form, especially Shaheen Shah, who has been on another level. There will be a discussion for the last spot and Mohammad Amir, Haris Rauf, and Abbas Afridi are in the race for the spot in the ENG vs PAK 1st T20I. </p>

<p><strong>ENG vs PAK:</strong> England sealed the 4-match T20I series by defeating Pakistan in the fourth and last T20I played on 30th May at the KIA Oval, London. England didn't allow Pakistan to even compete at any level in the series and below is the ENG vs Pakistan Full T20I series analysis.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><h2><strong>Table of Contents</strong></h2><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#summary-of-eng-vs-pak-t-20-i-series">Summary Of ENG vs PAK T20I series</a></li><li class=""><a href="#team-performances-in-eng-vs-pak-t-20-i-series">Team Performances in ENG vs PAK T20I series</a><ul><li class=""><a href="#pakistans-performance">Pakistan's Performance</a></li><li class=""><a href="#englands-performance">England's Performance</a></li></ul></li></ul></nav></div>



<p>Pakistan were on a tour of England just after they wrapped up the Ireland T20I series 2-1. Pakistan looked strong when they played against Ireland but things were totally on the left side when they played against England. Let's take a look at the summary of the PAK vs ENG T20I series.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="summary-of-eng-vs-pak-t-20-i-series"><strong>Summary Of ENG vs PAK T20I series</strong></h2>



<p>Pakistan were scheduled to travel to England for a four-match T20I series and this series was meant to be their final rehearsal before the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Pakistan had just won the Ireland T20I series and were definitely high on confidence while England called their players back from the IPL 2024. </p>



<p>This time of the year is known as spring season in England, which means a lot of rain! And definitely, the rain played a spoiler in as many as two games of the series which is often frustrating for fans as well as players.</p>



<p>The first match was scheduled to be played at Headingley, Leeds. It was raining heavily on the match day, and no action was seen in the first match as the match was called off without the toss. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/05/ENG-vs-PAK-1-1024x737.jpg" alt="ENG vs PAK 4th T20I Playing11, Dream11 Prediction, England vs Pakistan Dream11 Team, Full Squad, Kennington Oval London Pitch Report, Pakistan Playing11" class="wp-image-134631" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



<p>Birmingham had better weather on 25th May and we finally got a match. England, batting first, posted a good total on the board of 183 runs in their quota of 20 overs, and in response, Pakistan could only manage to put 160 on comparison and lost the match by 23 runs.</p>



<p>1-0 down in the series, Pakistan needed some more game time but clouds over Cardiff's sky didn't allow even the toss to begin with. The covers were not off the ground for a single moment and the third match was also called off without a toss.</p>



<p>Now, it was the time for the last contest in London. There were dark clouds over the head at Kennington Oval, but thankfully, we got a full match. Pakistan batted first this time and posted a low total of 157 runs. It seemed that the pitch has got some demons but when England came to bat, they were excellent on the crease. England chased down 158 in just 15.3 overs which shows the current levels of Pakistan Bowling unit.</p>



<p>England won the T20I series by 2-0 after the conclusion of the Pakistan tour of England 2024.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="pakistans-performance"><strong>Pakistan's Performance</strong></h3>



<p>Pakistan have not found their balance, to be honest. They are still not confirmed with the bowling combinations, have a shaky middle order and the only thing that is working for them is a bit of runs from the Skipper and Iftikhar Ahmed. </p>



<p>They have too many options on fast bowling, out-of-form all-rounders and middle order. Shaheen's magic isn't working and Naseem got just one match and he went too expensive. Imad Wasim was given rest in the 4th T20I and he is proving to be one of the most important players in this squad for the T20 World Cup. </p>

<p>The Wicketkeeping guy Azam Khan has failed with the bat. He just can't handle a pace of anything over 145Kmph. Jorfra Archer got him in the second T20I and here Mark Wood got him on zero. He also dropped a couple of catches behind the wicket and all these things must be considered by PCB and skipper Babar Azam in the World Cup.  Overall, they were poor on the field and fans expect a better standard from them.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="englands-performance"><strong>England's Performance</strong></h3>



<p>England were on the top in the series. <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricketers/jos-buttler-308967">Jos Buttler</a> and Phil Salt carried on their IPL forms and were good to give decent starts to their team. The middle order, however, wasn't that convincing for the English skipper but we saw some glimpses of the good form of the middle order in the last T20I. </p>

<p>With Jofra Archer back to the side and Mark Wood cruising to the crease, England's bowling lineup is definitely breathtaking with the pace. Adil Rashid also got a couple of wickets in the series and overall, they were riding the curves and always on the top of Pakistan team in the T20I series. </p>

<p>In a thrilling start to the T20 World Cup 2024, the USA pulled off an incredible 190+ chase against Canada in the inaugural match! But they didn't stop there?USA went on to level the score against Pakistan's formidable bowling lineup, one of the best in the tournament. This stunning upset is the first big shocker of the T20 World Cup and is sure to skyrocket the confidence of the USA players as they gear up to face India on June 12th. What an electrifying start for the USA!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="pak-vs-usa-match-summary"><strong>PAK vs USA Match Summary</strong></h2>



<p>Winning the toss was a game-changer, and luck was on USA's side! They strategically invited Pakistan to bat first, kicking off with spin to seize control of the innings right from the start. Mumbai-born Saurabh Netravalkar struck first, sending Rizwan back to the pavilion with a sharp edge to third slip. The excitement continued as Usman Khan, attempting a risky lofted shot, fell to Nosthush Kenjige in just the third over.</p>



<p>Then came Fakhar Zaman, blazing onto the field but lasting only seven balls. Pakistan found themselves reeling at 3 down within the first five overs. However, Shadab Khan and skipper Babar Azam fought back valiantly, building a crucial 72-run partnership. Shadab dazzled with a quickfire 40 off 25 balls, but questions arose as Babar Azam struggled to accelerate, inexplicably maintaining a strike rate of just 100 after playing 40-odd balls on a decent batting surface.</p>

<p>Azam Khan's dismissal on the very first ball added to Pakistan's woes, leaving them floundering in the middle. However, the late-innings heroics of Iftikhar Ahmed and Shaheen Afridi brought some much-needed fireworks. Their explosive hitting in the death overs propelled Pakistan to a fighting total of 159 in their 20 overs.</p>



<p>Chasing 160 against Pakistan's formidable bowling attack was no walk in the park. USA, however, held their nerve, avoiding early wickets and capitalizing on a couple of crucial misfields. They powered through the batting powerplay, racking up 44 runs and losing just Steven Taylor. The game-changing moment came with skipper Monank Patel and Andries Gous forging a vital 68-run partnership for the second wicket. This stand was the cornerstone of their chase, setting the stage for an exhilarating finish</p>

<p>Haris Rauf and Mohammad Amir reignited the contest with two quick wickets, dismissing both set batters and injecting fresh excitement into the game. With the match hanging in the balance, Aaron Jones and Nitish Kumar stepped up, guiding USA to a nail-biting scenario: 15 runs needed off the last over. Haris Rauf's first three balls were brilliant, conceding just 3 runs, but then the drama unfolded as his next three deliveries went for 11 runs, leading to a thrilling tie and a super over showdown!</p>



<p>USA took the crease first in the super over with Jones and Harmeet ready to take on the challenge. Known for his control, Mohammad Amir surprisingly gave away 3 wides, while a boundary and sharp running between the wickets saw USA amass 18 runs. The stage was set for a pulsating finish!</p>



<p>Saurabh Netravalkar took the ball for USA in the super over and delivered an exceptional first three balls, giving away only 5 runs and taking a crucial wicket. With Pakistan needing 14 off the last three balls, the pressure was immense. They could only muster 4, 2, and 1 in those final deliveries, sealing a historic victory for USA in the super over. This sensational win against Pakistan will be remembered as a landmark moment in the T20 World Cup!</p>
