Squad for SA 3-dayer soon

Published September 22, 2007

LAHORE, Sept 21: The national selection committee is likely to announce a 15-member cricket squad for the first three-day practice match against South Africa to be held in Karachi from Thursday.

Sources said, the squad was to be announced on Friday but was withheld by the selectors to watch the complete performance of some of the probables in the ongoing four-day game against Australia-A, which is to end on Saturday.

The South Africans are arriving in Karachi on Tuesday to play two Tests and five One-day matches against Pakistan, besides the three-day practice game.
