Pakistan’s young pacer Salman Mirza could not hide his joy after being named in the national squad for two big upcoming cricket events — the UAE T20 Tri-Series and the Asia Cup 2025. Both tournaments are seen as important preparations for Pakistan ahead of future ICC competitions.

On Sunday, the left-arm fast bowler expressed his happiness on social media. Taking to Instagram, Mirza posted the official squad banner on his account with a short but meaningful caption: “Shukar Alhamdulillah” (Thanks to Allah). His post immediately drew attention, with fans, fellow cricketers, and analysts showering him with congratulatory messages and prayers for success.

Mirza’s Recent Rise in International Cricket

Salman Mirza has had a dream start to his international career. He made his debut for Pakistan earlier in July during the three-match T20I series against Bangladesh. Despite being new to the international stage, Mirza showed remarkable confidence and skill. He finished the series as the highest wicket-taker, claiming seven wickets in three matches. Even more impressive was his economy rate of just 5.21, which highlighted his ability to keep the opposition under pressure.

These performances not only won him praise from cricket experts but also caught the attention of the Pakistan team management, earning him a well-deserved place in the squad for the UAE tour and Asia Cup.
