KARACHI: Kamran Akmal and Mohammad Sami are to be included in the list of contracted players by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).

Aknmal was recently included in the squad after being cleared by the PCB's integrity committee. However, it has not yet been finalised which category Akmal and Sami will be added to.

Yasir Shah and fast-bowler Mohammad Talha are also likely to be added to the list of contracted players.

The PCB has still not made a decision about Abdul Razzaq, who was not given a contract initially.
