Foster joins camp

Australian Daryl Foster arrived in city late Monday evening and was to business Tuesday when he had his initial workouts with the Pakistan fast bowlers. Pakistan team manager Yawar Saeed said Foster was also at the first practice match where he recorded bowling actions of some of the quickies.

He said Foster would discuss actions and adjustments required to improve them when he sits down with the fast bowlers. He, however, said the PCB has selected some fast bowlers who would remain under his guidance. He added that the fast bowlers would not be from the camp trainees but didn't rule out the possibility of some attending Foster's sessions if they required.

Yawar said injured pace duo of Mohammad Sami and Mohammad Zahid had also arrived in Karachi who would remain under the Australian's wings. Shoaib Akhtar, who is always in the news for wrong reasons, was also scheduled to join the camp Wednesday.
