Fakhar Zaman will miss Pakistan's tour of New Zealand as he is still suffering from a fever.
Batsman Fakhar was named in a 35-man squad for three Twenty20 Internationals and two Tests against the Black Caps.
The 30-year-old opener tested negative for coronavirus but is not deemed to be well enough to fly out of Lahore with his team-mates on Monday.
Pakistan doctor Sohail Saleem said: "Fakhar's covid test report was received on Saturday which came out negative but today he picked up fever.
"As soon as his condition was reported, he was isolated from the rest of the squad in the team hotel. We are constantly monitoring his condition and remain hopeful of his quick recovery; however he is not fit to travel with the squad and as such has been withdrawn from the touring party."
Pakistan and New Zealand start the T20 series at Eden Park on December 18.
