Zimbabwe all-rounder Sikandar Raza has rejoined the Lahore Qalandars ahead of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 10 final on Sunday.
His return to Pakistan was confirmed by the franchise through a video on its social media accounts, showing him shadow-practising in Lahore Qalandars training kit.
“Guess who’s back?,” the caption of the post read.
Fans were speculating whether Sikandar Raza would be available for selection for the PSL 10 final, given that he had just arrived in Pakistan after playing the one-off Test for Zimbabwe against England.
Lahore Qalandars skipper Shaheen Afridi confirmed at the toss that the Zimbabwe all-rounder would be playing for the side in the ultimate game of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 10.
It is worth noting here that the Qalandars had signed Bangladesh all-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz as Raza’s replacement for the playoffs.
