LAHORE: Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is considering to rest ODI captain Azhar Ali, vice captain Sarfraz Ahmed and middle order batsman Asad Shafiq for upcoming Zimbabwe tour.

PCB decides not to include these three players for next tour as long flights from Jeddah to Harare and back to back matches without proper rest may put their fitness on stake.
