Abdullah Fazal, Amad Butt, Azan Awais and Ghazi Ghori have all earned call-ups for the two-match Test series, starting on 8 May.<\/p>\n
Fazal and Awais, both left-handed batters, have been rewarded for their strong domestic performances. Butt, a bowling all-rounder, has over a decade of experience in domestic cricket, having made his first-class debut in 2015.<\/p>\n
Wicketkeeper batter Ghori, meanwhile, already has international exposure in white-ball cricket, having made his ODI debut against Bangladesh last month.<\/p>\n
The squad also includes experienced campaigners in Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Shaheen Afridi, Noman Ali, Sajid Khan and Salman Ali Agha, among others.<\/p>\n
