Naseem Shah strode off the field in the 49th over of the innings as he injured his bowling shoulder. He is likely to miss the following match against Sri Lanka and is doubtful for the remaining matches of Asia Cup 2023.

Haris Rauf did not take the field on the reserve day of the clash as he felt some 'discomfort in his right plank'. He is also likely to be sidelined for their Super 4 game and could miss the remaining matches of Asia Cup 2023. Both Naseem and Haris did not bat either.

All-rounder Agha Salman was left bleeding after being hit on the face while trying to play a sweep shot. However, he was okay to continue batting. He is likely to remain under the staff's close watch.
