Wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal (http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/player/41028.html) has been recalled by Pakistan for the Twenty20s against Australia in August, and September's World Twenty20. Kamran, who last played for Pakistan in the 2011 World Cup, was cleared by (http://www.espncricinfo.com/world-twenty20-2012/content/story/571945.html) the PCB's integrity committee earlier this month.
Batsman Imran Nazir (http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/player/40563.html), who last played for Pakistan in February 2010, and allrounder Abdul Razzaq (http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/player/39836.html) have also made the squad for both tournaments. None of these three players has a central contract.
"Each player in the side has a role and has been selected accordingly," Iqbal Qasim, Pakistan's chief selector, told ESPNcricinfo. "Razzaq and Imran are utility players and can make a difference. Imran is a good fielder, while Razzaq can also be useful as a seamer on Sri Lankan pitches [during the World T20] and can score some quick runs."
Mohammad Hafeez, who was named Pakistan's Twenty20 captain ahead of the just-concluded Sri Lanka tour, will continue to lead. According to the PCB release that announced the squad, Hafeez has been named captain 'till the end of 2012'.
