Bracewell, who led the side in Pakistan last year, will captain on home soil for the first time. The squad includes six players from the Champions Trophy campaign, with Ish Sodhi and Ben Sears returning. Kyle Jamieson and Will O’Rourke will play the first three matches, while Matt Henry joins for the final two, pending fitness clearance.
With the T20 World Cup in sight, selectors are assessing new talent, as key players like Devon Conway and Lockie Ferguson remain unavailable.
