Now PCB say Shoaib could be selected

PCB CEO Shafqat Naghmi, in a change of stance, said Shoaib Akhtar could be selected even if he doesn't pay his fine.
Akhtar was issued a legal notice by the PCB last month asking him to either pay the fine imposed on him by the PCB-appointed appellate tribunal or forget a national call-up.
But, Naghmi said despite the notice, national interest would be put before everything else when it came to selection matters.
"Let's just say we will prefer to give national and team interest priority and the reports we have got about Akhtar from our team trainer and coaching staff at the national academy is very good. So if he is fit we will definitely consider him when time comes," Naghmi said.
