Shehzad also vowed to look after his “fitness, health and diet” in order to give himself the best chance of achieving his goal.

“I am focused on myself, taking care of my fitness, health, and diet. My aim is to represent my country again with pride,” the 31-year-old said.

None of the teams picked Ahmed Shehzad for February's upcoming HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) eighth edition.

It is to be noted that Multan Sultans will take on the Lahore Qalandars in Multan in the opening match of the HBL PSL 8.
