The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has finally reached out to retired all-rounder Imad Wasim.
Following the conclusion of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season nine, the PCB top officials wants to meet the all-rounder and discuss his future career plans. Hence, the all-rounder has been invited to the PCB headquarters in Lahore.
Imad’s exceptional performance in PSL 9 was instrumental in Islamabad United clinching their third title.
According to sources, Imad has accepted the invitation and is expected to meet the PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi and national chief selector Wahab Riaz.
Furthermore, sources indicate that Wasim will be encouraged to reconsider his retirement plans. Pakistan T20I captain Shaheen Afridi also contacted Imad and advised him to take his retirement back as the national team needs his services.
Despite playing his last T20 International for Pakistan against New Zealand in Rawalpindi a year ago, Imad has consistently stated that his retirement is not definitive, and he is willing to come back to international cricket when needed.
Imad is not willing to reconsider his retirement until his concerns are addressed. He is concerned that he might be brought back into the team for one series and then will be sidelined again.
