T20 World Cup 2024 Preparations: Haris Rauf’s Recovery, Rizwan’s Injury Dilemma, and Pakistan’s Squad Adjustments
Haris Rauf Come Back and Rizwan’s Injury
Pakistan and New Zealand teams are training at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore today and both teams are preparing here before the fourth T20 match, but there are two special people from Pakistan. A player who is not participating in the training session here due to injury and a player who is not part of the Pakistan squad but is training here and for the first time they can be seen bowling after injury. His name is Haris Rauf.
He has been a regular part of the T20 team for a long time but after a poor performance in the PSL, he faced a tough time in the World Cup 2023. It means he was dropped but due to injury he could not join the team and now he can be seen in the camp although we saw him in action inside the camp in Kakul after this injury he Bowled for the first time. We can see him in the camp and the Pakistan team trainers are working with him.
He is bowling lightly. You can’t say that he is bowling restlessly, but it is clear that his fitness level has improved a bit. For the team Haris Rauf can be available as an option for the Pakistan team at some point, currently, he is not bowling full flash, and second is Mohammad Rizwan who is the wicketkeeper-batsman of the Pakistan cricket team. He is a main player in t20 World Cup 2024. Pakistan will face at India New York’s Nassau County Stadium
He suffered a hamstring injury and is not participating in the training here today and his report is also awaited after which the team management will decide who can replace him or who will play. They don’t need to be included but since Pakistan already has the cricketers who can play in their place, the question can be asked and I think maybe there is no need for a new edition, Usman Khan replaces him. will the Pakistan team be involved as these are only two positions?
Pakistan’s team is facing some problems, Rizwan is playing in a one-down position due to which Usman Khan is coming in at number 4, and many people are expressing concern that Usman Khan who is still in the Pakistan team. He is also playing international cricket. Made his debut and where he scores runs in PSL and leagues, why is he not being played in that position?
As an option, Usman Khan will come in a one-done position and then Fakhar Zaman can be played at number 4 then Pakistan’s combination will be good but now depends on his report. After that it will be decided whether he is available for the 4th T20 match against New Zealand and also whether he will come for training tomorrow or not but for now he will not take part in training here today. And what the management of the Pakistan Cricket Team has told us in their reports.
It is a wait-and-see decision as to what the future holds for Majeed but one thing you can call good news or bad news, the good thing is that Haris Rauf has been seen bowling here and as far as the Pakistan team is concerned. If we talk about Pakistan, physical training is going on now followed by bowling batting camp and today will be very busy Pakistan will try here with some new experiments because when Shadab Khan came to the press conference. He said one thing that the team management has met every player.
The management told every player about their role in the next matches as well as for the ICC tournament which is going to be held in June 2024 this year. The Pakistan prepares for the T20 World Cup 2024, especially after the defeat in the third T20 against New Zealand, Pakistan will have to take a bit of control. And it’s not as easy as we thought it would be in the series. The T20 cricket series that Pakistan is playing against New Zealand is part of the preparations for the T20 World Cup 2024. In this series, Pakistan has appointed former Pakistani all-rounder Azhar Mahmood as the head coach. Along with this, Muhammad Yusuf is the batting coach, Saeed Ajmal is the bowling coach, and former Pakistan fast bowler Wahab Riaz is the manager.
