Lahore [Pakistan], June 2 (ANI): Twenty-six men cricketers on Wednesday were invited to the National High-Performance Camp in Lahore on the recommendation of the men's national chief selector to train under the guidance of world-class coaches from Thursday, June 3.

The players will be divided into two groups - red ball and white ball - and will be provided format-based training, based on the insights received from the coaches at all rungs of the game during the 2020-21 domestic season.
