After undergoing a surgery on his injured finger, Imam returned to action on Friday in the semi-final of the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy One-Day tournament in Lahore.
With 17 required off the last over, Ross Taylor (42 not out) and Tim Southee (5 not out) could only get 14 off left-arm seamer Shaheen Afridi.
Besides Maqsood there were no other surprises apart from left-arm pacer Amir again failing to win the selectors' confidence. He was ignored for the just-concluded series against Australia which Pakistan won.
Under Ahmed's leadership, Pakistan have won 10 consecutive Twenty20 series beginning with the 1-0 win over England in 2016.
Despite suffering six losses in a row, the visitors won the T20I series 2-1 and that's a major positive that the Pakistan coach picks out of the New Zealand tour.
