The Pakistani team recently acquired the No. 1 ranking in the ICC ODI team rankings thanks to their 3-0 whitewash of Afghanistan in Sri Lanka. They have a formidable unit in batting led by Babar Azam and featuring Mohammad Rizwan, Imam Ul Haq, Fakhar Zaman, and Salman Agha, amongst others. Pakistan also boasts a quality bowling attack featuring Shaheen Afridi, Shadab Khan, Haris Rauf, and Naseem Shah, amongst others.

However, their one big weakness is a lack of a quality all-rounder, as they recalled Faheem Ashraf to the side as a pace all-rounder, despite him playing his last ODI two years ago. Though they have included Mohammad Nawaz in the team, the exclusion of someone like Imad Wasim raised eyebrows.

They do have Mohammad Wasim, who is capable with the bat as well, but when compared to the pace all-rounders the other participating teams have, Faheem Ashraf and Mohammad Wasim are not of the same quality.
