Pakistan’s 15-man squad for the ICC Champions Trophy, which the selection committee had announced on 31 January, was criticised for the inclusion of Khushdil Shah and Faheem Ashraf as well as for picking Abrar Ahmed as the lone spinner.

Glenn Phillips warmed up for the Champions Trophy with his first one-day international century as New Zealand beat Pakistan by 78 runs in the opening game of the tri-nation cricket series on Saturday.

The Indian bowler, despite being named in the original squad, failed to make the cut due to a lower back injury. Harshit Rana has been named as the replacment for Bumrah.
