Pakistan One-day Squad for Zimbabwe Series

Lahore: Pakistan recalled Shoaib Malik and Mohammad Sami in a 16-man one-day squad for the three-match series against Zimbabwe but under-performing batsman Umar Akmal and Umar Gul failed to make the cut.

The 33-year-old Malik played last of his 216 one-day internationals in the 2013 Champions Trophy held in England in 2013 while Sami last featured in a one-day on the 2012 tour of Sri Lanka.

Also returning to the squad is opener Ahmed Shehzad who was dropped from the team for last month's one-day series against Bangladesh with an attitude problem.

Pakistan were whitewashed 3-0 in Bangladesh, a result which triggered the experienced Malik's recall.

Ace spinner Saeed Ajmal continued to be sidelined after he struggled with his remodelled action on the Bangladesh tour following his clearance in February this year. His absence leggie Yasir Shah will be the frontline spinner in the squad. Shah missed the Bangladesh one-day series with a finger injury.

Pakistan ODI squad: Azhar Ali (captain), Mohammad Hafeez, Ahmed Shehzad, Asad Shafiq, Haris Sohail, Shoaib Malik, Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), Anwar Ali, Hammad Azam, Imad Wasim, Yasir Shah, Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Sami, Junaid Khan

In: Shoaib Malik, Mohammad Sami, Hammad Azam, Imad Wasim, Ahmed Shehzad, Babar Azam, Anwar Ali

Out: Fawad Alam, Saad Nasim, Saeed Ajmal, Sami Aslam, Umar Gul, Zulfiqar Babar, Rahat Ali
