PCB ignores senior stars for ICC ceremony
By Our Sports Correspondent
LAHORE, May 15: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has overlooked three senior Test stars, including captain Inzamamul Haq, by nominating fast bowler Mohammad Sami to represent the country at the unveiling ceremony of the ICC Champions Trophy in London on Monday.
The Champions Trophy is being hosted by England in September this year.
Vice-captain Yousuf Youhana and paceman Shoaib Akhtar, who like Sami is currently playing county cricket in England, were also not considered to represent Pakistan.
The remaining countries will have senior players representing them at the unveiling ceremony.
