The left-handed all-rounded is suffering from a side injury, due to which he also missed the fourth T20i against England in the recently concluded series.
Babar Azam confirmed Wasim’s unavailability during a media interaction here on Tuesday.
“Imad Wasim is suffering from a side strain, which means he won’t be able to play in our opening match,” said Azam.
The skipper shared that the medical panel has advised against playing Wasim as a precaution so he can be available for the remaining matches in the mega event.
