Imran Nazir has been pardoned by the PCB chairman Ijaz Butt after sending a written apology for showing dissent over an umpiring decision in a Twenty20 domestic game. Nazir will now be available for selection for the one-day and Twenty20 leg of the Sri Lanka tour.

Nazir showed dissent after being adjudged LBW by umpire Nadeem Ghauri in the final of a Twenty20 competition. As a result, he was not considered for the Sri Lanka tour and was fined and suspended for three domestic games.

In an interview with Pakpassion.net a few days ago, Wasim Bari, interim chief selector, had said that Nazir was "now in contention for selection for the ODIs and Twenty20s."

Nazir recently returned to the official fold after ending his stint with the ICL, where he represented the Lahore Badshahs.
