Pakistan reveal squad for Bangladesh Tests, call up four uncapped players
Pakistan have unveiled a 16-man squad for their upcoming two-match Test series in Bangladesh, mixing fresh talent with experienced leadership both on and off the field. In the squad, Pakistan have named four uncapped players in the form of Abdullah Fazal, Amad Butt, Azan Awais, and Ghazi Ghori. Among these newcomers, only Ghori has featured in a solitary ODI against Bangladesh in Mirpur last month.
Shan Masood will lead the squad that features the likes of stars like Babar Azam, Khurram Shahzad, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Noman Ali and Sajid Khan. Meanwhile, former captain Sarfaraz Ahmed will serve as as head coach following his recent retirement from international cricket.

Notably, before the tour begins, all selected players, apart from those currently participating in the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL), will link up in Karachi for a red-ball training camp scheduled from April 27 to May 1. The first Test will begin on May 8 at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium
Pakistan squad: Shan Masood (c), Abdullah Fazal, Amad Butt, Azan Awais, Babar Azam, Hasan Ali, Imam-ul-Haq, Khurram Shahzad, Mohammad Abbas, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Muhammad Ghazi Ghori (wk), Noman Ali, Sajid Khan, Salman Ali Agha, Saud Shakeel and Shaheen Shah Afridi
