Off-spinner Harbhajan Singh remained doubtful for the day-night limited overs international against Pakistan at the Gaddafi stadium in Lahore on Monday although the injured index finger in his bowling hand has improved, a team official said on Sunday.

"Harbhajan Singh's injured finger has improved, but the team management does not want to take a chance," said team's media director G S Walia in Lahore.

The injury kept the offie out of the first ODI at Peshawar on Feb 6 and the second tie at Rawalpindi yesterday as well.
