    By IANS News January 31, 2025 • 19:56 PM View: 1054
    The Pakistan Cricket Board: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced a 15-player squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, scheduled to take place in Pakistan from February 19 to March 9. Faheem Ashraf, Fakhar Zaman, Khushdil Shah, and Saud Shakeel are all coming back into the squad for the tournament. The same squad will also feature in the tri-nation ODI series, featuring New Zealand and South Africa in Lahore and Karachi, in the lead-up to the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

    There are four changes in the 15-player squad that last played an ODI series in South Africa late last year. Abdullah Shafique, Muhammad Irfan Khan, Saim Ayub, and Sufyan Moqim have been replaced by Faheem Ashraf, Fakhar Zaman, Khushdil Shah, and Saud Shakeel. The squad, to be captained by Mohammad Rizwan with Salman Ali Agha as vice-captain, includes three members from the 2017 CT side - Babar Azam, Faheem Ashraf, and Fakhar Zaman. Babar and Fakhar, along with Haris Rauf, Shaheen Shah Afridi, and Saud Shakeel had also featured in the last 50-over ICC event - the ICC Men’s 50-over Cricket World Cup 2023.

    Opener Fakhar Zaman, who scored a century in the ICC Champions Trophy 2017 final against India, makes a comeback after overcoming injury and illness that had sidelined him from international cricket since June 2024.
