Salman Agha – Captain
Given the spin-friendly conditions expected at Gaddafi Stadium, Salman Agha’s spin bowling and potential batting contributions make him a valuable asset.
Rachin Ravindra – Vice-captain
Rachin Ravindra is a key player for New Zealand, and his performance in subcontinental conditions makes him a strong choice. The pitch is ideal for batting, and Ravindra is a good opener who has shown the game to excel in the subcontinent.
