Inzy keen on county cricket
Saturday, 30 June 2007
Inzamam-ul-Haq, the former Pakistan captain, has expressed his interest in playing county cricket in a bid to regain his Test place.
"I have offers from league clubs in England but I want to play for a county to ascertain my form and fitness for a place in the Test team," Inzamam said. "I am training hard and am fit. I played a one-day match at the weekend and will continue my efforts to get into the Test side."
Pakistan selectors have said Inzamam will have to prove his fitness to get a place in the home series against South Africa in late September this year. However, there are no further domestic matches in Pakistan, meaning Inzamam is looking to England to gain match practice.
"I have been in touch with people," he said, "and if there is a place vacant in the county I would definitely like to go and play."
