Fatima Sana returns as Pakistan announce squad for Asia Cup and Asian Games

Pakistan have announced a strong 15-player squad for the Women's Asia Cup and the Asian Games, with designated captain Fatima Sana returning after fulfilling her commitment to the Birmingham Phoenix in the women's Hundred. Sana missed the three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka after the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) greenlit her participation in the marquee tournament in England, allowing her to skip the T20I leg of the tour.
