All-rounder Hammad Azam has been included in the Peshawar Zalmi squad with immediate effect.

Hammad's inclusion has been approved by the event technical committee which includes PCB CEO Wasim Khan, Bazid Khan, Marina Iqbal, Sameer Khosa and Dr Sohail Saleem.

Hamad has been included after five foreign players of Peshawar Zalmi left their team stranded in the event over coronavirus fears and have returned to their home countries.
