Shoaib and Asif included in PAK WC squad
Pakistan selectors on Tuesday named injured fast bowlers Shoaib Akhtar, Umar Gul and Mohammad Asif in the 15-member squad for the World Cup2007.
Injury-prone express fast bowler Akhtar took four wickets in the second Test against South Africa before he returned home due to an injured hamstring and trouble in the knee.
Pakistan has also planned to conduct dope tests of the World Cup players. Asif and Akhtar both tested positive last year before the Champions Trophy in India and were first banned for one year and two years respectively, but were exonerated by the PCB's appellate commission.
