In an important development, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced the list of 29 national players, who will take part in the training camp sponsored by the PCB. The Pakistan National camps are set to begin on March 26 in Abbottabad. The training camp is expected to be held at the Pakistan's Military Academy in Kakul. 



Considering the importance of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024 in the West Indies and USA, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) have decided to tighten up the fitness standards of their national players. 



The list of 29 players for the training camp includes all the big names in Pakistan's current T20I squad along with some retired cricketers. The likes of Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan and Shaheen Shah Afridi will be present alongside pacer Mohammad Amir and Imad Wasim, who had hung their boots a while ago.



Interestingly, Imad Wasim took retirement from all forms of international cricket on November 24, 2023, while Mohammad Amir bid adieu to international cricket back in 2020. However, both the players have now reversed their decisions and made themselves available for the <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/icc-new-rule-in-while-ball-cricket-start-from-t20-world-cup/" data-type="post" data-id="127741">T20 World Cup 2024</a> selection for Pakistan.



Amir, recently, took part in the PSL 2024 which turned out to be a modest outing for him. The left-arm pacer returned with just 10 wickets in nine matches at a slightly expensive economy of 8.41 for Quetta Gladiators.



Below is the list of 29 players shortlisted by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for the Training Camp ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024.

Former Australian all-rounder Shane Watson and former Caribbean star performer Darren Sammy have rejected the Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) proposal for coaching roles in their national sides. The two were approached by the PCB, a little while ago, but things didn't turn out fruitful for them.



The talks with Shane Watson accelerated to the advanced stages, but things didn't work out eventually, Reportedly, the Aussie wasn't pleased with the discussions getting leaked. Also, he had multiple commitments, including IPL commentary and in Major League Cricket, which eventually pushed him to deny the lucrative offer.

Darren Sammy, on the other side, is associated with the West Indies national team as the head coach, so can't take up another.

In order to get the Shaheens back on track for the 2024 T20 World Cup, the Pakistan Cricket Board decided to reappoint Babar Azam as the white ball captain of the Men in Green. In November 2023, following Pakistan's humiliating defeat against India in the 2023 ODI World Cup, Babar announced his decision to resign as the skipper from all formats of the game.



Following Babar Azam?s resignation as the skipper, the 29 year old was replaced by Shaheen Shah Afridi as the captain in T20 International games and Shan Masood in the longest format of the game.



The 1-4 series defeat against New Zealand in January 2024 was the only series the Shaheens played under the leadership of Shaheen Shah Afridi.



The 2009 T20 World Cup winners are set to lock horns against the Black Caps in a five match home T20i series in April. Then they will travel to Ireland for a two-match T20i series and then they will be playing four T20 International matches against England before the 2024 T20 World Cup.
