LAHORE, Jan 2: The Pakistan team's tour to India, besides betting and match-fixing issues, will be discussed during the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) executive council meeting to be held here at the Gaddafi Stadium tomorrow (Sunday).

Talking to Dawn, the PCB Chairman Khalid Mahmood (who will be presiding over the meeting) said that the proposed tour- programme of the Pakistan team has been received from Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). He said that the PCB council will give approval to names of captain, manager and other officials of the Pakistan team for the Indian tour in Sunday meeting.

``I have no knowledge of any change being made in the chairmanship of the PCB as reported in a section of the press (not Dawn). I fail to understand what is the motive behind giving such news without getting them confirmed from the concerned quarters!'' said Khalid Mahmood while replying to a question.
