The Pakistan Cricket Board has revised its Test squad for the upcoming two-match home series against Sri Lanka, bringing the total number of players to 16. Pace-bowling all-rounder Aamir Jamal has been added to the squad alongside three uncapped players: batter Mohammad Tayyab Arif and fast bowlers Ali Shabbir and Saqib Khan. According to Dawn, these three players earned their first call-ups following domestic performances and a three-day practice match involving the PCB Patron’s XI.
The revised selection sees Ali Usman and Abdullah Fazal removed from the original 14-member squad, as reported by Dawn. The first Test is set to begin Monday at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, followed by a second match at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium from November 17 to 21. Both matches are part of the ICC World Test Championship 2025-27 cycle.
