Qadir, who was one of the five travelling reserves, was named as a replacement after Shayan was ruled out due to a nasal bone fracture which he sustained during a team training session.

“The Event Technical Committee of the ICC U19 Men’s Cricket World Cup 2026 has approved Abdul Qadir as a replacement for Mohammad Shayan in the Pakistan squad,” ICC said in a statement on Saturday. IANS
