Naseem, who injured his right shoulder during the match against India, was ruled out of the tournament today, and Zaman Khan has been named as his replacement.
Pakistan and Sri Lanka are tied on two points going into the virtual knockout match on Thursday, and the winner will face India in the final. “Obviously, it is a big blow [absence of Naseem]. It is unfortunate that he picked some little niggles. But what a fantastic opportunity for the guys you know coming in,” said Morkel.
