Pakistan's medium pacer Hasan Ali is yet to recover from his elbow pain and his involvement in the Test series against Bangladesh at home is unlikely, Geo News reported on Saturday citing sources.
Hasan is in England playing County Cricket for Warwickshire Club where he could feature in three first-class matches and five T20s. He will now undergo full treatment for his elbow injury.
Hasan also missed out on matches for his involvement with Pakistan's T20 squad in the series against Ireland.
Remember, Pakistan will have a lengthy home season in 2024/25. The home international season will begin with Bangladesh playing two Tests in Rawalpindi (21-25 August) and Karachi (30 August-3 September).
England will travel to Pakistan for three Tests in Multan (7-11 October), Karachi (15-19 October) and Rawalpindi (24-28 October), and the West Indies will touch down for two Tests in Karachi (16-20 January) and Multan (24-28 January).
Additionally, New Zealand and South Africa will take part in an ODI tri-series in Multan from 8-14 February.
Apart from the home international fixtures, the men's team will tour Australia, Zimbabwe and South Africa from 4 November to 7 January, playing two Tests, nine ODIs and nine T20Is.
