Ramiz Raja, chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), has challenged the national squad to play the game fearlessly.
In the next months, Pakistan will play host to the West Indies, England, and New Zealand. Pakistan will also take part in the World Cup and the Asia Cup this summer.
Ramiz advised players to work on their abilities and their fitness during a visit to the conditioning camp before the West Indies series.
They are role models and will always be appreciated, Ramiz remarked. As a result of this, he claimed, new central contracts have had their monthly salaries raised.
There is a new Players Compensation Fund (PCF) set up by the cricket governing body to safeguard the careers of top cricketers who are frequently persuaded to compete in leagues and other domestic competitions all over the world.
For the National Stadium in Karachi and Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Ramiz Raja said the cricket board has invited curators from Australia to begin work on the installation of new pitches.
