Shahid Kamal Replaces Najibullah Zadran in Pakistan ODIs
Due to a knee injury, Afghanistan’s main batter Najibullah Zadran will not be able to participate in any of the one-day international matches that will take place between Afghanistan and Pakistan. The Afghanistan Cricket Board made the announcement via various social media platforms. Najibullah Zadran has been replaced in the Afghanistan team by Shahid Kamal ahead of the One-Day International series between Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Najibullah Zadran is a one-day international player for Afghanistan who possesses a great deal of expertise.
