Kamran Akmal and Arshad Iqbal have been replaced in the Peshawar Zalmi squad after coming down with Covid-19.

Three days out from the start of the new campaign, Kamran and Arshad were identified as two of the eight positive Covid cases in the Paksitan Super League bubble.

They will now fulfil mandatory isolation and can only emerge from quarantine with two negative test results.

Pakistan international batsman Imam-ul-Haq and Ammad Butt have been added to the Zalmi roster from the backup pool of replacement players.

Imam was not one of the original 15 players named in the reserve pool but became an option once Omair Bin Yousuf after Salman Ali Agha and Musadiq Ahmed were unavailable.

Peshawar begin their PSL campaign against Quetta Gladiators on Friday (January 28).
