Out of the 15-member squad, ten players return from the last T20 World Cup in 2023, including Aliya Riaz, Muneeba Ali, Nashra Sandhu, Omaima Sohail, Sadia Iqbal, Sidra Amin, Tuba Hassan, Shamas, Dar, and Fatima. The selection of left-arm spinner Sadia is dependent on her fitness, while uncapped left-arm seamer Tasmia Rubab has also been included in the squad.
Alvi, who was omitted from the main squad, has been named as the travelling reserve for Pakistan. Rameen Shamim and Umm-e-Hani are the non-travelling reserves.
