PCB to demand extra visas in front of New Zealand visit

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chose to demand three extra visas in front of the five-match T20I New Zealand series which is set to start on January 12.


The choice was taken considering the wellness given to the group during their Australia visit as, up until this point, three Pakistani players, Khurram Shazad, Abrar Ahmed, and Noumal Ali, experienced difficulty with wounds.

The PCB will demand visas for one spinner, one pacer, and one-hitter for the New Zealand visit so they can hit up any player if necessary.
