Pakistan opener Saim Ayub has been released from the national squad for the remainder of the ongoing One-day International tri-series after requesting to return to domestic cricket to work on his batting form and regain confidence, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said on Monday.
asserted
Board → release → Monday
The PCB said the decision was taken after Saim spoke to head coach Mike Hesson, with the team management and national selection committee agreeing to his request.

management → say → request
“Respecting Saim’s decision and appreciating his honest assessment of his current form, the team management and national selection committee have mutually agreed to accept this request,” the board said in a press release.

Right-handed opener Sahibzada Farhan has been named as Saim’s replacement for the remainder of the tournament.
asserted
Farhan → name → tournament
The decision comes after Saim endured a difficult run in the tri-series, including a six-run dismissal in Pakistan’s dramatic one-wicket victory over England at the Gaddafi Stadium on Sunday.

His early departure was part of a top-order collapse that left Pakistan struggling before Shadab Khan’s unbeaten 113 and an unbroken last-wicket partnership with Haris Rauf secured the win.

113 → leave → win
Concerns over Saim’s form had also been raised ahead of Sunday’s match, with Pakistan captain Shaheen Shah Afridi acknowledging the selection options available to the team amid inconsistent returns from the opening batters.
asserted
Afridi → raise → batters
The PCB statement did not specify how long Saim would spend playing domestic cricket or provide details of any future selection plans.
asserted
Saim → specify → plans
