PCB has officially announced Squad for upcoming tri series against Afghanistan and UAE held in Dubai as well as for upcoming Asia cup 2025, it's the first time since 2016 that Baber thier key player wasn't part of any major tournament, like seriously. No doubt baber has done alot and in my view and no one even closer to him in term of statics and record for Pakistani team at every format, but still after consistent 8 year of vital performce they drop him just on the basic of previous two year performance which is horrible, honestly I don't even imagine Pakistani team were complete without him. Anyway Rizwan as well as Naseem got dropped too and now that's combination of several young player team which I think will be in huge trouble st crucial situation because lack of expensive will get them hardly against stringer side.
