ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Thursday has named Mohammad Hafeez as the new Twenty20 captain for next month's series against Sri Lanka while leaving Misbah-ul-Haq in charge of the test and one-day teams.

Pakistan's selectors on Thursday also picked three different wicketkeepers for the three formats while dropping Misbah from the Twenty20 team.

Pakistan will play two Twenty20s, five one-dayers and three tests against Sri Lanka, starting with a Twenty20 in the southern port city of Hambantota on June 1.

"Whatever the selectors and board thinks right, they have done it. I am not disheartened. My job is to still focus on leading the side well in tests and ODIs which remains a major responsibility," he said.

PCB chief Zaka Ashraf made it clear that the board appreciated the good work done by Misbah since last year but needed to move on. "Hafeez will also be vice captain to Misbah in the tests and ODIs," he said.

The selectors also recalled fast bowler Mohammad Sami to all the three squads and middle-order batsman Faisal Iqbal was brought back into the test team.
