WATCH: Haris joins Pakistan Shaheens squad ahead of white-ball series against Bangladesh-A

Pakistan Shaheens' white-ball captain Mohammad Haris has joined the squad for the upcoming two fifty-over matches against Northern Territory and Bangladesh-A. 

In preparation, the Shaheens held an intensive practice session to boost their spirits and prepare to face the Bengal Tigers without pressure.

In a video released by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), players were seen engaged in catching practice while bowlers and batters geared up their spirits by practicing in the nets under the supervision of head coach Abdul Rehman. 

The practice session comes on the heels of a competitive two four-day match series against Bangladesh-A, which concluded in a draw with each team securing one win. 

The Shaheens are now shifting their focus to the 50-over matches, set to take place against Northern Territory on August 4 and Bangladesh-A on August 6.

Following these matches, the Shaheens will compete in a T20 series starting August 9. Other teams in the T20 series include ACT Comets, Bangladesh-A, Melbourne Renegades, Melbourne Stars, Perth Scorchers, Northern Territory Strike, Adelaide Strikers, and Tasmania.
