Karachi: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has invited former pacers Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Sarfaraz Nawaz to supervise a specialised fast bowler's camp to be held in Lahore from October 8.
A senior official of the PCB confirmed that the chairman Ejaz Butt had given the clearance for the camp to be set up under the watchful eyes of former pacer and a senior coach at the National Cricket Academy Aaqib Javed.
"Aaqib will supervise the camp but we will have Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Sarfaraz Nawaz also in the camp to coach the youngsters," the official said.
Incidentally, Sarfaraz has been a vocal critic of the PCB and its present set of officials and has been calling for the chairman Butt's head since his appointment.
Aaqib, who was removed as assistant coach of the Pakistan team after the Sri Lanka tour, said he was looking forward to the camp as it could throw up some exciting young talents.
"Pakistan is blessed with spot on talent in the pace department and having people like Wasim, Waqar and Sarfaraz giving tips to the youngsters would be a great experience for the youngsters," he said.
Aaqib also made it clear that he had no hard feelings with the board for removing him as national team assistant coach and said he had already resumed his work at the NCA.
"The PCB feels there is no need for a assistant coach on tours but their utility is more in camps and academies and I have no problems with that," he said.
