Usman Khan will receive an invitation to the national camp; Imad Wasim will not be invited.

Usman has stated before that he wants to play for the United Arab Emirates, but he still has 14 months to make the team.



A pool of about 25 players will be announced by the Pakistani selectors for a training camp that will begin on March 25 at an Army installation in Kakul. The side for the forthcoming home five-match T20I series against New Zealand in April will be selected from this pool.

The PCB chairman's consent is required before the players' names are announced tomorrow.

All-rounder Imad Wasim's name is currently missing from the list of players scheduled to be announced for the camp. Imad won player of the match in the PSL 9 final for his five wicket haul and batting display. He also helped Islamabad United defeat Peshawar Zalmi in the second Eliminator by scoring an innings-winning unbeaten 59 for United. Sources state that Imad Wasim's name hasn't been included because he announced his retirement. Until he formally withdraws, selectors are unable to consider him for selection. A similar position is maintained regarding retired fast bowler Mohammad Amir.

In the meantime, following his strong batting achievements in PSL 9, Usman Khan of the Multan Sultans is probably going to be invited to the camp. This season's PSL edition saw Usman Khan become the first batter to score two century in one go. At a strike rate of 164.12, he scored 430 runs in seven innings in the end. Usman, though, will make the independent decision about whether or not he wishes to join the camp.Although Usman has stated that he wants to play for the United Arab Emirates, he still has 14 months to meet the requirements to join the team.After he completes the camp, the decision to add him to the Pakistani squad will be taken.
Abrar Ahmed and Mehran Mumtaz, for example, are probably in the camp as well.

Ihsanullah's inaccurate elbow diagnosis is noted by PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi.

Mohsin Naqvi, the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), is furious over how board members have handled the injury of young fast bowler Ihsanullah. Ihsan, 21, made a big impression with his pace in the Pakistan Super League last year. He then took part in two ODIs at home against New Zealand and three T20 matches against Afghanistan in Sharjah. But after the series against New Zealand, he suffered an elbow injury that kept him out of action for the Asia Cup and World Cup. Unfortunately for the youngster, his recovery has not yet been complete due to a misdiagnosis of his condition and a botched operation in Lahore. A top physician on the board's medical panel made the first diagnosis, according to a Press Trust of India article. As a result, time was lost trying to heal the patient without surgery. Following a failed surgery at a private hospital in Lahore, medical professionals at his PSL team, Multan Sultan, determined he needed to see a specialist in the UK. The PCB has n...

Hero Imad Wasim leads Islamabad to a thrilling two-wicket victory in the PSL final.

Hunain Shah wins with the last ball as Multan falls in yet another thrilling match. Scoreboard  Islamabad United is the team that knows how to win PSL finals, even though Multan Sultans may have the recipe for getting there. For the Sultans, it was deja vu as they watched another PSL final be stolen from them in a low-scoring thriller ending. United's hero was Imad Wasim, who defied time with an incredible all-around effort. He claimed five wickets and was out in the middle when Hunain Shah angled the final delivery behind point to win United's third title. In Karachi today, the drama of the previous year's epic final, which the Sultans lost by a run, was undoubtedly surpassed. At several points during both innings, United looked to have won that match, but never more so than when they got the Sultans down to 127 for 9. However, Iftikhar Ahmed's cameo of an unbeaten 32 off 20 balls lifted the Sultans to 159, a score that they felt they had just about enough manpower to ...
