Mohammad Rizwan captains the home squad, Pakistan, which is missing rising star Saim Ayub through injury, while Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah, and Haris Rauf lead the pace attack. (AFP), India’s squad contains eight of the players who carried them to success at the most recent ICC global event, the Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, including captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. (AFP), Bangladesh, semi-finalists at the most recent ICC Men’s Champions Trophy in 2017, will be captained by Najmul Hossain Shanto as they bid to go further this time around. (AFP), Mitchell Santer will captain the Black Caps for the first time at an ICC event and leads a side – and attack – containing some fresh faces. (AFP), Steve Smith captains Australia in Cummins’ absence and will be an important figure in a batting line-up also featuring Travis Head, who scored a masterful 137 in Australia’s victory over India in the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 final. (AFP), Temba Bavuma captains South Africa and is set to open, with Tony de Zorzi and Ryan Rickelton battling it out to partner him, while Rassie van der Dussen, Aiden Markram, David Miller and Heinrich Klaasen make up a hard-hitting middle order. (AFP), England, captained by Jos Buttler, have called Tom Banton into their 15-strong squad. The 26-year-old, who is fresh from two ILT20 centuries in the UAE, replaces the injured Jacob Bethell. (AFP), Afghanistan's captain Hashmatullah Shahidi was forced into an eleventh-hour change to their squad when spinner AM Ghazanfar was ruled out with a back injury, leading to a call-up for 20-year-old left-armer Nangyal Kharoti.
