ODI World Cup 2023 Team Pakistan Squad And Schedule: The ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 is one of the most anticipated sporting events, which is scheduled to be held from October 5 to November 19 in India across 10 venues. With the tournament approaching, fans are eager to learn more about the countries and individuals that will compete. Pakistan, in particular, has drawn a lot of attention due to its strong pool of talented players.

Pakistan, the 1992 world champions, are anticipated to visit India for the ICC ODI World Cup 2023. They have been in constant discussions with the BCCI and the ICC over their participation in the event. They are headed by a flamboyant figure in Babar Azam, who is now the number one hitter in one-day cricket.

Pakistan finished fifth in the 10-team ICC One-Day International World Cup 2019, losing out on the semi-finals owing to an inferior NRR.

In the current ICC ODI Team Rankings, Pakistan is ranked fourth, demonstrating how well they may perform as a team in the forthcoming edition of the world’s largest One-day competition in compared to four years ago.

Probable 18 Men Squad Of Pakistan For World Cup 2023

Batsmen

In the run-up to the World Cup, Pakistan’s batting lineup has been constantly hitting huge runs in one-day internationals. Players like Babar Azam, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah, and Mohammad Rizwan will be crucial for Pakistan. Apart from the notable players, the Pakistani squad will have a number of young and experienced players.

Wicketkeepers

Pakistan may choose between two wicketkeepers: Mohammad Rizwan and Mohammad Haris. Mohammad Rizwan, on the other hand, is likely to be Pakistan’s main wicketkeeper in the ICC ODI World Cup due to his superb glove performance behind the wickets and, more crucially, his runs in the middle order.

Allrounders

This Pakistan side boasts more allrounders than ever before, and they are all seasoned and well-played allrounders. Shadab may generate a lot of batting power. His googly is unreadable, but if he can replicate his performance in the PSL, Shaddy is the one to watch. Nawaz has also performed admirably during New Zealand’s visit of Pakistan.

Bowlers

Pakistan’s bowling attack in all formats of cricket is led by Shaheen Shah Afridi, one of the world’s top fast bowlers. He, along with Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf, has frequently taken wickets for his national team in one-day internationals, making it tough for opposing batters to maintain any sort of control during their batting innings.
