Meanwhile, Inzamam ul Haq said that the players of Pakistan senior team skill camp and Pakistan A team were selected purely on merit. Meanwhile, Inzamam thanked all trainers from the Pakistan Army for imparting training to national cricketers.

Inzamam said the selectors did a lot of hard work to finalize players for the skill camp and it was quite unfortunate that that they could not come across a talented all rounder who could impress them with his skills and technique.
“The week-long skill camp for the England tour will run from May 30 to June 5,” the chief selector said while addressing a press conference at the Pakistan Cricket Board headquarters in Lahore.
