All-rounder Samiullah Shinwari was on Tuesday recalled after a two-year absence from Afghanistan's cricket team, as the country announced its 17-man squad for the Asia Cup kicking off in the United Arab Emirates later this month.
The 34-year-old all-rounder played the last of his 64 Twenty20 internationals in 2020 but regained his place after good performances in Afghanistan's domestic cricket league.
Mohammad Nabi will lead the side in Afghanistan's third representation at the Asia Cup, which was first held in 1984.
