Memorial services for Woolmer on Friday

KARACHI: The memorial services to mark the 4th death anniversary of Pakistan cricket team coach Bob Woolmer will be held at St.Patrick’s Church, Khudadad Colony on Friday

A service will also be held at Essa Nagri and other churches of the city, according to a press release by the Bob Woolmer Cricket Club.
