ISLAMABAD: Wicketkeeper-batsman Haseebullah has replaced injured Azam Khan in the Pakistan team for the ongoing T20 International series against visiting New Zealand squad.

Azam was sidelined from the T20I series against New Zealand due to a tear in his right calf muscle. Haseebullah will join the Pakistan side after Monday and will be available for selection in the remaining two T20Is scheduled to be played in Lahore on Thursday and Saturday, respectively. The 21-year-old player made his sole T20I appearance against New Zealand earlier this year.
