Nawaz replaces Faheem for Pakistan-Afghanistan second T20I

SHARJAH: All-rounder Mohammad Nawaz has replaced Faheem Ashraf in Pakistan’s playing XI for the second T20I against Afghanistan on Sunday at Sharjah Cricket Stadium.

Taking to Twitter, Pakistan revealed the playing lineup for the second of the three T20Is, making just one change from the first match which the Green Shirts lost by six wickets.

On Friday, Afghanistan bowlers wreaked havoc to restrict Pakistan to a meagre 92/9 before Mohammad Nabi’s sensible 38-run knock powered the hosts to their maiden victory over Pakistan in the first T20I.

Playing XI: Shadab Khan (c), Mohammad Haris, Saim Ayub, Abdullah Shafique, Tayyab Tahir, Azam Khan, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Nawaz, Naseem Shah, Zaman Khan, Ihsanullah.
