Hasan Ali recalled T20Is against Ireland and England; Haris Rauf, Agha Salman is also back

“Rizwan, Haris, Irfan and Azam are being tested,” he said. “There is a noticeable improvement in their fitness. They are part of the team because we hope they will be ready for the Ireland series.”
Hasan, who like Jamal currently plays county cricket for Warwickshire, was selected by the PCB more for his experience and pedigree in the ICC tournament rather than current form. Hasan enjoyed an impressive PSL this year with Karachi Kings, taking 14 wickets at 8.26, but was not selected for the New Zealand series.
His selection appears to be based on a belief in his ability beyond solid statistics, and the opportunity to test him in Ireland and England before the 18-man squad is whittled down to 15 for the T20 World Cup.
Pakistan play three T20Is against Ireland from May 10, before playing four matches against England. The deadline to announce the T20 World Cup squad (May 25) is after the first T20I match against England (May 22).
