Kamran Akmal, The Pakistan wicket keeper has expressed disappointment after he failed to find a place in the squad for Sri Lanka tour. The experience wicket keeper of Pakistan said that he is unaware of the reason for his continuous omission.
Kamran Akmal said: "I don't know why the selectors did not select me once again. I am doing well at the domestic level and am fit and want to play for my country but I don't know why I am continuously left out of the team."
The Chief selector, Iqbal Qasim said that Akmal needed to clear himself of integrity issues so that he could be eligible for the selection. While Kamran Akmal claimed that he has received a clearance from PCB's integrity committee.
"I am cleared by the PCB integrity committee and if I am at fault in any way then ban me for good," Akmal added. "This is not fair to level allegations against me because I have satisfied everyone, including the International Cricket Council (ICC)."
Kamran Akmal has had a bad time behind the stumps over the course of his career and has been criticised for his shoddy keeping. He was dropped after semi final of 2011 World Cup in which the Green team lost to India, and his youngest brother, Adnan Akmal replaced him.
Following Kamran Akmal, the All-rounder Abdul Razzaq also criticsed the selection for ignoring him in the squad for Sri Lanka.

Following Kamran Akmal, the All-rounder Abdul Razzaq also criticsed the selection for ignoring him in the squad for Sri Lanka.
"I am very sad at not being selected," Abdul Razzaq said. "I am fit and have
recently played in the domestic events but its surprising how the
selectors keep ignoring me."
Abdul Razzaq said that he is looking for comeback instead of focusing on retirement questions. He said;
"I have no plans to retire from international cricket as I believe I can
still play for Pakistan. I have a contract with Leicestershire in the
English season so I will go there and play with a hope that my
performance will convince the national selectors".
