Gull Feroza, who smashed two hundreds in the recently concluded ODI series against Zimbabwe, will boost the top order. Seasoned wicket-keeper batsman Muneeba Ali and batsman Ayesha Zafar are the other players expected to handle the task of getting the Pakistan top-order going.
Natalia, Iram Javed, Aliya Riaz, and Saira are some of the options who can come in handy in the middle order.
Pakistan’s biggest strength lies in its bowling. Sadia Iqbal, Nashra Sandhu, Tuba Hassan and Rameen will lead the spin attack, whereas Fatima, Diana Baig and Tasmia will boost the pace lineup.
