T20WC : Confirmed Men T20 Squads

Eoin Morgan leads a Kevin Pietersen-less England squad to the ICC World T20 in India next month.
Pietersen’s red-hot form in South Africa’s domestic T20 competition and the KFC Big Bash League for the Melbourne Stars this summer had teammate Luke Wright and former England captain Michael Vaughan calling for the exiled batsman to return to the England set-up for the World T20 tournament.
With Pakistan suffering an embarrasing exit from the ongoing Asia Cup, Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Shaharyar Khan said there will be changes in the national squad before the opening match of the World Twenty20 which begins in India next week.
“I assure there will be changes in the national team before the World Cup begins because accountability is necessary for the continuing poor performance of the team in ODIs and T20 cricket,” Khan told the media in Lahore
According to sources Shahryar had began deliberations with number of people to access how to halt the poor show of the team.
“He has also spoken to Pakistan’s Test captain Misbah-ul-Haq on phone and also invited Younis Khan for a meeting as both are his advisors on cricket matters,” one source said.
“I can assure there will not be a witch-hunt and there will be no scapegoat but it is a fact that the people have been let down by the team and management,” he added.
Pakistan crashed out of the tournament after losing to Bangladesh by five wickets on Wednesday.
Khan also made it clear that he wanted to improve Pakistan cricket and he will make changes in every department but while some might be instant others will take time.
“The team administration will be questioned about what went wrong and they will be held accountable,” he added.
Speculations are strong that the PCB might ask experienced allrounder Shahid Afridi to step down as captain and appoint wicketkeeper Sarfaraz Ahmed in his place for the World T20 when the team returns from Bangladesh later this week before going to India.
One source in the board said during deliberations today a common thread that emerged was that everyone felt Afridi was not pulling his weight as a player and seemed helpless as captain on the field.
“The chief selector could also face the axe as in the deliberations the selectors were blamed for not managing and selecting players properly since last year,” the source said.
With the World T20 2016 less than three days away, here’s a quick look at the squads of the participating teams. After Sri Lanka’s announcement, the squad sheet is complete and only West Indies are left to name a replacement for Darren Bravo, who pulled out of the squad.
