Pakistan has named their squad for the T20 World Cup 2024 in West Indies and USA. The PCB has named their final 15-member squad on Friday (March 24).

Babar Azam is set to lead the team in the T20 World Cup, while a major boost is that Haris Rauf has been included in the team as he seems to have successfully recovered from injury.

"This is an extremely talented and balanced side that has a mixture of youth and experience. These players have been playing together for some time and look well-prepared and settled for next month's event," PCB said in a statement.

Both Imad Wasim and Mohammad Amir, who came out of retirement earlier this year, have been included. Hasan Ali, as expected, has been left out of the squad.

Pakistan are currently in England playing in a four-match T20I series. They are slotted in Group A along with India, USA, Ireland and Canada. Babar Azam and co. start their campaign with a match against USA on June 6, while the much-anticipated flagship clash against India is on June 9.
