Hasan Ali, Pakistan's right-arm pacer, has received a "fit" status for training, offering a significant boost to the national team as they prepare for their World Cup 2023 clash against Bangladesh.
Though previously sidelined due to a bout of fever during the South Africa match, the fast bowler remains under constant observation by the Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) medical panel, and his participation in the upcoming match with Bangladesh is contingent upon the panel's approval.
The Pakistani team is set to commence their training session in Kolkata on Monday, in anticipation of the crucial match against Bangladesh, scheduled for Tuesday.
Pakistan's World Cup campaign has been marred by disappointment, with the team only managing victories against the Netherlands and Sri Lanka. Subsequently, Babar Azam's squad faced four consecutive losses to India, Australia, Afghanistan, and South Africa, marking an unprecedented losing streak in the tournament's history.
The Green Shirts now face an uphill battle, with their semi-finals prospects hanging by a thread. Even if they secure wins in their remaining matches against Bangladesh, New Zealand, and England, their qualification remains highly improbable, depending on the outcomes of other teams.
