Pakistan's top-order batter Saim Ayub will be out of action for at least another month due to a right ankle fracture, raising concerns about his availability for the upcoming tour of New Zealand. The 22-year-old suffered the injury while fielding in a match on January 3, which led to his exclusion from the Champions Trophy 2025 squad. Ayub will continue his rehabilitation in England, with his availability for the New Zealand tour depending on his fitness and successful clearance of all medical tests.
The injury, which occurred five weeks ago, has been a significant setback for Ayub, who has been progressing well in his rehabilitation but still has a long way to go before he's fully recovered. The opening batter has been on crutches since the incident and will undergo further medical assessments to determine the exact timeline for his return to the field. The PCB will closely monitor Ayub's recovery, with the medical team working to ensure he makes a successful comeback.
The Champions Trophy 2025 squad has already been announced, and Ayub's exclusion is a significant blow to the team. However, the focus now shifts to his rehabilitation and ensuring he's fit for the upcoming tour of New Zealand, which starts on March 16. The 10-week recovery timeline will be crucial in determining Ayub's availability for the tour, and the PCB will be keeping a close eye on his progress.
As Ayub continues his rehabilitation in England, the PCB remains hopeful that he will make a successful return to the field. The young batter's injury has been a significant setback, but with the right treatment and care, he's expected to make a full recovery. The PCB will provide updates on Ayub's progress, and fans will be eager to see him back in action soon.
