The cricket board has added promising middle-order batter Saud Shakeel to the 17-member squad for the event, which begins on August 30.

In a noticeable growth, Pakistan drafted in Saud Shakeel to their Asia Cup 2023 squad. In the meantime, Tayyab Tahir has been put into the squad as a travelling reserve.

Notably, each the aforementioned gamers had been a part of Pakistan’s squad for the Afghanistan ODIs, however neither of them might get enough recreation time. Whereas Saud Shakeel performed one recreation during which he scored 9 runs, Tayyab Tahir couldn’t even play a single recreation within the Afghanistan collection.
