Saim Ayub, the Pakistan opener, is continuing his recovery from an ankle injury sustained in January. His future participation in the tournament on April 11 depends on a medical review scheduled for Tuesday.
Under trainer Hanif Malik and British specialists, Saim’s recovery is on track. Initially projected at six weeks, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) took a cautious approach, sidelining him for the ICC Champions Trophy and New Zealand tour. Tuesday’s evaluation will decide his PSL readiness.

Saim twisted his ankle chasing a boundary in the Cape Town Test against South Africa. Ruled out mid-match, early scans suggested a quick recovery, but the PCB prioritized caution. Recent Instagram updates from the PCB showcase his rehab progress.
If cleared, Saim rejoins Peshawar Zalmi in the Platinum category with Babar Azam. Zalmi eagerly awaits the Saim Ayub PSL 2025 verdict, as his dynamic batting could shape their season. A final call is due soon.
Saim’s potential PSL return signals hope for fans and Zalmi alike. The Saim Ayub PSL 2025 decision will balance his recovery with Pakistan cricket’s rising star’s competitive comeback.
