Cricket: Lahore unhappy with national selection
Usman scored 1,622 runs in the domestic season including six centuries and nine half-centuries.
The Lahore Regional Cricket Association (LRCA) and its three affiliated zones have urged the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to take notice of the snub of Usman Salahuddin from all three squads for the tour of Sri Lanka.
Usman scored 1,622 runs in the domestic season including six centuries and nine half-centuries at an average of 81.3.”In recent selections of Pakistan’s national and the under-19 side, our budding players have been left out which has created a lot of disappointment,” read a joint statement released by LRCA, West Zone, East Zone and North Zone. “The PCB should give a fair chance to Lahore’s players the way players from other regions are being treated.”
