In a section of the press it has appeared that the original list of 25 probables recommended by the Selection Committee contained the names of Ijaz Mahmood, Zahid Fazal and Ali Gohar but their names were not there when the list was made public instead to new names Humayun Farhat and Fazl-e-Akbar were added by the PCB Secretariat. PCB denies this report and offers to provide the original probables list to any newspaper/ journalist which surely contain the names of Humayun Farhat and Fazl-e-Akbar and not the 3 names as alleged.
