Pakistan Shaheens vs England Lions 2026

Under Sarfaraz Ahmed’s management, the team has performed very well over the past few months. Unfortunately, they did not perform very well at the ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup 2026. But in the Asia Cup Rising star they ended up becoming champions.

This series will be a test for them as they prepare for the upcoming Under-19 Asia Cup T20 2026, which will be in July. Unfortunately, the rising star fast bowler Ali Raza is injured and will not be a part of the squad against England Lions due to injury.

He’s currently in the rehabilitation programme at the NCA, under the supervision of the PCB medical panel. Mohammad Amir, the 24-year-old right-arm pacer and batsman, replaced Ali Raza.
