Twenty-20 in Sri-Lanka: Shahid Afridi was included in the team

Pakistan Cricket Board’s chief selector Muhammad Illyas announced the national team for the One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and Twenty20 series against Sri Lanka on Wednesday, while addressing a press conference in Lahore. Former captain Shahid Afridi has been included in the team.
Afridi had retired in protest after he was stripped of captaincy following the tour of the West Indies earlier this year. However, he took back his retirement last month, and said earlier on Wednesday that he was hopeful of rejoining the team.
The team includes:
Misbahul Haq
Muhammad Hafeez
Imran Farhat
Shahid Afridi
Younis Khan
Umar Akmal
Shoaib Malik
Sarfaraz Ahmed
Saeed Ajmal
Abdul Rehman
Umar Gul
Aizaz Cheema
Junaid Khan
Sohail Tanveer
Abdul Razzaq
Asad Shafiq
Misbahul Haq will serve as the captain.
Wahab Riaz has been dropped from the team.
Pakistan will play the five-match ODI series against Sri Lanka from November 11 in Dubai. The one-off Twenty20 will be played on November 25.
If Pakistan win the series 2-0, they will move up one spot to replace Sri Lanka at fifth in the Test rankings.
