In a major recognition of Pakistan's massive global audience and pulling power, Cricket Australia (CA) has officially scheduled a three-Test series against the Green Shirts for December 2027 as part of the ICC World Test Championship (2027–29) cycle.

Record crowd attendances from the vibrant Pakistani community in Perth, Melbourne, and Sydney have made Pakistan one of Australia’s most lucrative visiting teams.

CA's push reflects Pakistan’s status as a premier crowd-puller capable of driving prime-time viewership across Australian television networks.

NO NCA, NO PROBLEM: Rizwan Continues Private Practice Amid PCB Rift🧐

In a dramatic and heartbreaking turn of events, star wicketkeeper-batter #MohammadRizwan has been left out in the cold, forced to train independently in private facilities after the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) completely closed its doors on him.

Once an indisputable pillar of Pakistan's white-ball setups, Rizwan's national standing plummeted following consecutive squad drops—first from the ODI side and later getting released from the Test squad alongside other senior players.

Tensions reached a boiling point when the PCB formally revoked his access to official high-performance facilities, forcing him out of the NCA and domestic practice setups.

With the leadership structure prioritizing young guns like #SahibzadaFarhan in T20Is and shifting focus away from traditional stars, Rizwan's future for the 2027 ODI World Cup hangs by a thin thread.

Refusing to back down, footage and reports emerged of Rizwan conducting private net sessions, maintaining peak fitness to prove his worth despite the board's cold shoulder.

PSL Performance Deprioritized in Pakistan’s Bold New T20I Selection Strategy 🧐

.

Pakistan’s selection committee has signaled a major policy shift, making it clear that Pakistan Super League (PSL) performance is no longer the decisive factor for national T20I selection.

Despite #BabarAzam consistently topping PSL run charts, the selectors backed #SaimAyub at the top of the order to maintain an aggressive powerplay approach, ignoring Saim's recent slump in form.

#MohammadHaris delivered explosive, proven performances across PSL editions, yet the committee opted for #KhawajaNafay as a specialized middle-order/wicketkeeping option despite his lukewarm franchise record.

Fast bowler Hunain Shah earned plaudits for his clutch PSL spells, but selectors chose Razaullah—fresh off a standout Test debut—to jump straight into the T20I setup despite having negligible white-ball credentials.
