There are strong considerations to appoint wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan as the captain for Pakistan’s upcoming white-ball series against Australia. The national team selection for the series, which runs from November 4 to 18, 2024, is expected to be announced next week.
Fast bowler Mohammad Hasnain is also likely to make a return to the squad after impressive performances in the Champions Cup and President’s Cup. Hasnain, who last played an ODI in 2023, is being considered for the upcoming three-match ODI and T20 series.
Sources suggest that Rizwan is being seriously considered to lead the side against world champions Australia, with the final decision pending discussions with the chairman and selectors. All-rounder Aamer Jamal and young wicketkeeper-batter Haseebullah are also under consideration for selection.
