Woolmer submits tour report

LAHORE, Feb 17: Pakistan coach Bob Woolmer's report on the recently concluded tour of South Africa was received by the PCB on Saturday.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Director Cricket Operations Saleem Altaf, told Dawn that the report from the manager Talat Ali Malik on the same tour was expected on Monday.

Both the reports, he said, would be circulated among the members of the ad-hoc committee for their opinion in next meeting to be held on March 24, Saleem said.

Saleem, said since the report had not been discussed, therefore, he was unable to make comment on it.

He pointed out that the PCB ad-hoc committee, which met at Islamabad on Saturday, could not hold any discussion on the performance of Pakistan team in South Africa as no member had read the reports either of coach or manager.

Pakistan lost the Test series to South Africa 2-1 and One-day series 3-1.

He said the urine samples of 18 boys had been collected and after getting the samples of Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammad Asif, it would be dispatched to WADA's accredited laboratory in Malaysia.

He said the PCB would get the results in two or three days after dispatching those to WADA, as the board was paying extra charges to get the results as soon as possible.
