LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Monday announces that as many as 29 players will undergo a fitness camp in Kakul, Abbottabad from Tuesday (today).

The camp will focus on team building and aims to enhance the physical and mental strength of the players, ensuring they are in the best condition to face the challenges ahead. Under the guidance of experienced trainers and coaches, the players will undergo a comprehensive training regime tailored to elevate their fitness levels, agility, leadership and strategic thinking and overall performance on the field.
