ICC T20 WC 2024: Shadow Of Fitness On Pakistan Team, Tension Before England And Ireland Series! The T20 World Cup 2024 is fast approaching, and teams are gradually being announced. New Zealand and South Africa have already unveiled their squads, and now a big update has emerged regarding the Pakistani team.
The Pakistani Team’s Announcement is Scheduled For Today:-
Media reports suggest that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will take its time in announcing its squad. The Pakistani team’s announcement is scheduled for today, but there will be no rush in selecting the players.

It is worth noting that the PCB had recently reappointed Babar Azam as captain, while Gary Kirsten will be Pakistan’s coach for the limited-overs format.
The report states that the Pakistani team can make changes to its squad until May 25. Therefore, there will be no hurry in selecting the team. The selectors will keep an eye on Pakistan’s series against England and Ireland before the World Cup.
Changes to Pakistan’s World Cup squad are possible based on these two series. While all teams must announce their squads by May 1, they will have until May 25 to make changes.
Fitness of Pakistani Players:-
It is reported that some players are still injured, but most players seem to be 100% fit. Mohammad Rizwan was recently injured but is now recovering. Azam Khan and Irfan Niazi are also getting better along with him.
Meanwhile, the fitness of Haris Rauf remains a concern, as he has not played any competitive cricket since January. He is currently training in Lahore. It is good news that if Haris is fit, he could be given a chance in the series against England and Ireland.
However, one major concern for Pakistan is the fitness of their players. While most players seem to be fit, there are a few key players who are still recovering from injuries. This could be a major setback for Pakistan, as they will need all their best players available to compete in the World Cup.
Teams Will Target Pakistan’s Middle Order:-
Another concern for Pakistan is the form of their middle order. The middle order has been a problem for Pakistan for some time now, and they have yet to find a consistent combination. This could be a major issue in the World Cup, as teams will target Pakistan’s middle order.

Despite these concerns, Pakistan is still a strong team on paper. They have a world-class bowling attack, and their batting line-up is full of potential. If they can get their fitness and form right, they will be a force to be reckoned with in the T20 World Cup 2024.
