Rawalpindi: The five-match T20I series between Pakistan and New Zealand, starting on April 18, will face disruption due to bad weather conditions.
Rain is expected to affect the first three matches in Rawalpindi on April 18, 20 and 21, weather permitting.
There is a 40 percent chance of rain during the day and a 70 percent chance Thursday night, according to the Weather Channel.
The first match of the adventure is scheduled for April 18 at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium and both teams are holding their first practice session tonight.
Speaking to reporters, Azhar highlighted the team’s balance and other issues.
With the return of Mohammad Amir and Imad Wasim, we can use them whenever we want.
“On the other hand, there is the best talent,” he said.
Meanwhile, New Zealand rejected the idea of a B team and added a list of future stars.
He is the best talent and there is no weak team in T20. I heard about the B team and stuff, but it is the New Zealand team and they are going to play. Pakistan,” he said.
In the policy of rotation of senior players, Azhar said that Babar can also sit out, looking at the situation of the series. Meanwhile, all-rounder Shaheen Afridi dismissed reports that he is injured.
“Babar Azam can be rested, but it depends on the situation. We will look at all aspects while making a decision.
“Shahin Afridi is fully fit. I heard that he might miss the first two games against New Zealand. But that came from the media and certainly not from us,” he said.
