(deletes reference to England in title for T20 squad list)
Oct 5 : Pakistan have dropped Salman Ali Agha as T20 captain and left him out of the squad for this month’s Sri Lanka series, the country’s cricket board said on Monday while naming squads for the T20 series and ODI tri-series against Sri Lanka and England.
• Sahibzada Farhan has been handed the T20 captaincy after leading Pakistan to a silver medal at the Asian Games and finishing as the T20 World Cup’s leading run-scorer with 383 at a strike rate of 160 in March.
• Agha remains part of the ODI setup, where Shaheen Shah Afridi retains the captaincy for the tri-series. Former captain Babar Azam has also been included in the ODI squad.
