Aadil, Saddam Hussain and Bahrain-based defender Mohammad Ahmed will be part of the team in the two-legged bid against Yemen.
They are more likely to join the team five days before the first leg against Yemen.
Hassan led Pakistan against Afghanistan. Saddam also played the match. Kaleem, Adil, Ahmed, did not come due to commitment with their clubs; Otis faced document issues, while Sami was not released by his club.
Zeshan skipped the friendly due to a minor injury.
In a bid to get a few practice matches ahead of their clashes with Yemen, Pakistan will fly out of Lahore for Malaysia on the night between January 20 and 21. After playing a couple of games there, they will then move to Thailand on the night between February 28 and 29.
As per schedule the players will return on March 7. But a PFF official said the plan could be revised and Pakistan could also move from Bangkok directly to the country which would host Pak-Yemen first leg of the qualifiers.
After the World Cup qualifiers, Pakistan will feature in their Group B matches of the 2016 AFC Under-23 Championship qualifiers in Lahore.
Jordon, Kuwait, Turkmenistan and Kyrgyzstan are the other teams in Pakistan’s group.
Shamlan will be assisted by Hasan Baloch, Tenvir Ahmad and Zahid Taj during the camp. Mohammad Asghar will serve as manager.
