Pakistan A cricket team

Pakistan A
Captain: Babar Azam
Coach: Basit Ali
Founded: 1964

The Pakistan A cricket team is a national cricket team representing Pakistan. It is the 'second-tier' of international Pakistan cricket, below the full Pakistan national cricket team. Matches played by Pakistan A are not considered to be Test matches or One Day Internationals, instead receiving first-class and List A classification respectively. Pakistan A played their first match in August 1964, a three-day first-class contest against Ceylon Board President's XI.

Pakistan A have played a number of series, both home and away against other national A teams, and competed against other first-class opposition. Their first tour was that of Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) in 1964–65. Pakistan A did not play another match until the 1991 season, when they again toured Sri Lanka , a series against England A the previous season having been cancelled due to the Gulf War.[1]
