After much delay, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Wednesday February 10,2016 announced their 15-man squad for the upcoming ICC World Twenty20 in India scheduled to be held during March 08  to April 03,2016

   

As expected, Shahid Afridi will lead the team in the shortest format of the game and what came as a huge shock, the selectors have dropped stylish right-hander Ahmed Shehzad for the prestigious event

Ahmed Shehzad was replaced by Khurram Manzoor, who had played 16 Tests and seven one-day internationals for Pakistan.

In one of the surprises, Pakistan picked uncapped left-arm seamer Rumman Raees. Umar Gul and Sohaib Maqsood have also failed to make the cut
