Pakistan's middle-order batter Haris Sohail has suffered injury during team's training session at Pindi Stadium, Rawalpindi on Wednesday.
According to sources, Haris, who was retained in national ODI squad from last series against New Zealand in January, has got an injury in his shoulder.
During fielding drills, Haris was involved in a collision with Shadab Khan and hurt his shoulder and underwent scans at a local hospital. His participation in the first ODI against New Zealand, scheduled on April 27, will be decided after scans' result.
Earlier this year against the same opposition, Haris made his comeback to international cricket. The then chief selector Shahid Khan Afridi called him back to the squad. He scored 64 runs in his comeback ODI series.
Later on, he was supposed to be a part of Pakistan's plans for this year's ICC World Cup as he was retained in the squad for five-match ODI series at home, starting tomorrow in Rawalpindi.
