Inzamam wants a win in England as his swan song
by CricketArchive Staff Reporter


Player:Inzamam-ul-Haq
Event:Pakistan in British Isles 2006

DateLine: 26th June 2006

 

The 15-member Pakistan team led by Inzamam-ul-Haq left for England on Sunday to play four Tests and five one-day internationals. The team management decided that the decision regarding the inclusion of Rana Naveed-ul-Hassan as the 16th player would be made after receiving his scan reports. Shoaib Akhtar has already been declared unfit.

 

With Pakistan not having a tour of England in the ICC future tour programme announced up to 2012, the two-and-a-half month tour could be the last for Inzamam. "This will be my last tour of England so I want to make it memorable with a win," said Inzamam.

 

The 36-year-old batsman made his Test debut in 1992 at Edgbaston and has played 109 Tests scoring 8,266 runs.

 

"We have had some good preparations for the tour in all departments and we are capable of achieving the best results in England," said Inzamam.

 

"If they have four to five players injured we too have two of our strike bowlers in Rana Naved-ul Hasan and Shoaib Akhtar injured so it's even when you enter the ground," said Inzamam.

 

The squad: Inzamam-ul-Haq (capt), Salman Butt, Imran Farhat, Shoaib Malik, Younis Khan, Mohammad Yousuf, Faisal Iqbal, Shahid Afridi, Kamran Akmal, Abdul Razzaq, Danish Kaneria, Mohammad Asif, Mohammad Sami, Umar Gul and Shahid Nazir. Coach: Bob Woolmer. Manager: Zaheer Abbas.
