Hafeez
and
Malik
have
both
informed
the
Pakistan
team
captain
Babar
Azam
and
head
coach
Saqlain
Mushtaq
that
they
will
not
be
available
for
the
series
due
to
personal
commitments.
Both
the
players
also
skipped
the
recent
T20
series
in
Bangladesh
after
the
World
Cup,
which
Pakistan
won
comfortably
by
a
3-0
margin.
“Malik
has
said
that
he
wants
to
focus
on
playing
in
T20
leagues
and
the
Pakistani
selectors
should
only
consider
him
for
selection
for
select
and
important
series,”
a
reliable
PCB
source
said.
He
said
Hafeez,
on
the
other
hand,
has
said
he
is
skipping
the
West
Indies
series
as
he
is
busy
with
the
Lankan
Premier
League
and
the
selectors
should
give
a
chance
to
some
young
players.
Hafeez
also
skipped
the
series
in
Bangladesh.
“Basically
it
has
been
decided
to
now
start
giving
more
exposure
to
players
like
Haider
Ali,
Sohaib
Maqsood,
Khushdil
Shah,
Iftikhar
Ahmed,
Danish
Aziz,
Azam
khan
to
prepare
them
for
the
future
instead
of
waiting
around
for
Hafeez
and
Malik,”
the
source
added.
