Pakistan needs players like him.” 

“God willing, if there is a discussion with him, hopefully, he will come back because the World Cup is approaching and the way he is performing and his experience in CPL, Pakistan definitely needs him,” he added.

Imad Wasim has left the door open for a potential comeback to the national team.

“I made a name for myself while playing for Pakistan and if my country needs me, I will be available. If not, I have no issues with that,” Imad said.

“Shaheen called me after I retired but I told him that we will talk after PSL,” he added.

In a thrilling Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2024 match, Hunain Shah emerged as the hero by smashing a boundary off the last ball, securing a two-wicket win for Islamabad United over Multan Sultans and clinching their third PSL trophy.
