Selectors meet

Lahore, Dec 5: The national selection committee held its first meeting here on Sunday evening to chalk out a strategy for the three-nation triangular one-day series involving Australia and India.

Chief selector Salahuddin Ahmad and fellow selector Iqbal Qasim met team captain Wasim Akram. Third selector Masood Iqbal couldn't attend the meeting as he was busy preparing for MBA exams, PCB secretary Shafqat Rana said.

Shafqat Rana told Dawn that the selectors wanted to have a good look at 12 or 14 players who have been doing in the current season.

He said in all probability, the selectors would watch the boys in the nets on Dec 9. He said a short-duration camp would also be set up to prepare the players for the series starting from Jan 9.
