The former players said that players should not be selected on just Pakistan Super League (PSL) performance. It is injustice to the players who are performing at the domestic level, they added.
Following Babar Azam-led national team's underwhelming performance in the world cup, Zaka Ashraf called for a meeting with the skipper on Nov 15.
Additionally, the Pakistan head coach and team director are set to present their reports to the PCB chief.
