Wicketkeeper-batter Azam Khan has been ruled out of the T20I series against New Zealand with a Grade One tear of his right calf muscle.
The 25-year-old was advised a 10-day rest after scans revealed the tear in his calf muscle.
Azam first experienced discomfort in his right calf during batting practice before the first T20I at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
He was replaced by 21-year-old Haseebullah Khan, who impressed at the ICC Men's U19 Cricket World Cup 2022, finishing as the second-highest run-getter in the tournament.
He had made his T20I debut earlier in the year in New Zealand.
