Promising Karachi batsman Saeed bin Nasir was a late inclusion Wednesday in Team 'D' squad for next week's Super League One-day Ramazan Cup.

Saeed was inexplicably not considered by national selectors when the squads were originally announced some days ago.

Selectors have also inducted two other players. Mian Nafees, the Quetta batsman who represented Rest of Balochistan last season, has been named in Team 'C' squad. Shahbaz Bashir Khan is the other one who is included in Team 'B. He made 356 runs in five matches for Sibi in the recent National Junior Cup (Under-19) Grade-II Championship.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Wednesday also named coaches for all four teams. Former Test players Haroon Rasheed and Azhar Khan are assigned to work with Team 'B' and Team 'D' respectively while Naved Anjum takes over Team 'C'. Team 'A's coach is Shahid Aslam.
