Explosive Azam Khan Replaces Zimbabwe's Sikandar Raza in Qavalry's T10 Lineup
28 Oct
Summary
- Sikandar Raza ruled out of Quetta Qavalry's Abu Dhabi T10 debut due to international commitments
- Qavalry quickly signs Pakistan's Azam Khan as Raza's replacement
- Azam Khan known for his explosive batting in franchise cricket
In a last-minute roster change, Quetta Qavalry has brought in Pakistani cricketer Azam Khan to replace Zimbabwe's Sikandar Raza for the upcoming Abu Dhabi T10 League. Raza, who was originally part of Qavalry's squad for their inaugural season in the tournament, has been forced to withdraw due to international commitments.
The franchise quickly moved to fill Raza's spot, signing the hard-hitting wicketkeeper-batter Azam Khan. Known for his explosive batting in franchise cricket, Azam has previously represented Quetta Gladiators in the Pakistan Super League and has also played in leagues like the CPL, ILT20, and BPL.
Azam's inclusion gives Qavalry's lineup a significant boost, particularly in the lower middle order. While his international T20 record remains modest, the 27-year-old's raw power and ability to clear boundaries make him a valuable asset in the fast-paced T10 format.
Quetta Qavalry, one of the new entrants in this year's Abu Dhabi T10 League, has assembled an impressive roster blending experience and flair. Their lineup features several Pakistani stars, including Mohammad Amir, Khawaja Nafay, Abbas Afridi, and Arafat Minhas, alongside the newly-signed Azam Khan. Fans will be eager to see whether the big-hitting wicketkeeper can deliver his trademark fireworks in Abu Dhabi.
