i tried with something like this
xcrun simctl list --json devices available | jq '.devices | with_entries(select(.key|contains("com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS")))'
but i was unable to implement rest of the jq manipulations to achieve expected format.
output for xcrun simctl list --json devices available as below

how do i list available ios simulators as expected format ?

To launch a Simulator without running an app Do one of the following: Choose Xcode > Open Developer Tool > Simulator. Control-click the Xcode icon in the Dock, and from the shortcut menu, choose Open Developer Tool > Simulator.
To install an app on a connected simulator, follow these steps. Go to Apps > Install Application. Find and open the app you want to install from your Mac. The app appears in the list of installed apps on the right side of the iOS Gateway window.
The version info that you're trying to grab is part of the devices keys. So you'll want to extract that out and build out your results formatted as needed. You could use contains combined with substrings to perform the extraction but using capture/1 here could simplify the process.
Here's one way you could do it:
$ xcrun ... | jq '.devices | to_entries[]
| (.key | capture("com\\.apple\\.CoreSimulator\\.SimRuntime\\.iOS-(?<version>.+)")) as {$version}
| .value[] | {name: "\(.name) (\($version|sub("-"; ".")))", udid}'
