 Akmal was originally the only keeper named |
Former Pakistan captain Moin Khan has been recalled to the squad for the one-day internationals against New Zealand. The wicket-keeper was controversially omitted when selector Aamir Sohail announced a 22-man squad on Friday.
Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Tauqir Zia had to step in to diffuse a row after Sohail named the squad without consulting with coach Javed Miandad.
A spokesman said Moin had been reinstated after a rethink.
The dispute flared up after Sohail announced the pool of players last Friday without consulting the Pakistan captain or coach and even some of his fellow selectors.

The squad did not include Moin, who played in the two Tests against South Africa, or former skipper Rashid Latif and had just one keeper, Kamran Akmal, for the series.
"The selectors have reconsidered the inclusion of Moin after a rethink on their part," PCB chief executive Ramiz Raja said.
"They felt it would be better to have two wicket-keepers in the training camp for New Zealand."
The one-dayers start at Faisalabad on 22 November.
Squad: Imran Farhat, Salman Butt, Saleem Elahi, Taufeeq Umar, Yasir Hameed, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Yousuf Youhana, Asim Kamal, Misbah-ul-Haq, Bilal Asad, Abdul Razzaq, Azhar Mahmood, Shoaib Malik, Shoaib Akhtar, Mohammad Sami, Umar Gul, Shabbir Ahmed, Abdul Rauf, Mohammad Irshad, Fahad Masood, Kamran Akmal, Danish Kaneria, Moin Khan.
