The wicketkeeper-batter from Bagh district's Dhirkot area is reportedly under consideration for Pakistan's final Test against England.
Young wicketkeeper-batter Rohail Nazir, hailing from the Chhaprian Dhara area of Dhirkot in Azad Kashmir’s Bagh district, has once again drawn attention on the national cricket landscape.
Reports indicate that Nazir is expected to be named in the Pakistan squad for the upcoming third and final Test match against England, scheduled for September 9 in Birmingham. Pakistan currently trails in the three-match series following defeats in the opening two fixtures.
Nazir has previously represented the national side and Pakistan Shaheens, earning recognition from selectors for his technical skills behind the stumps and reliable batting performances in domestic cricket.
His potential inclusion has been welcomed across Azad Kashmir, with sports circles in Bagh and Dhirkot viewing the development as a source of local pride and an example of talent emerging from smaller regional areas into professional sports.
