Pakistan will be without pacer Diana Baig for the remained of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 with a calf muscle injury seeing her ruled out of the tournament.
Najiha Alvi will replace Baig in the squad ahead of the final Group clash against New Zealand on Monday.
Baig sustained the injury to her right calf during the match against Sri Lanka in Sharjah on October 3.
Meanwhile, skipper Fatima Sana, who missed the previous game after her father passed away, will return to lead the team for the final fixture of the Group stage.

Pakistan squad: Fatima Sana (c), Aliya Riaz, Gull Feroza, Iram Javed, Muneeba Ali, Nashra Sundhu, Nida Dar, Omaima Sohail, Sadaf Shamas, Sadia Iqbal, Sidra Amin, Syeda Aroob Shah, Tasmia Rubab, Tuba Hassan, Najiha Alvi.
