SA, Pakistan want fresh start in Karachi Test

---

KARACHI, Sept 29 (AFP): South Africa and Pakistan are looking to make a fresh start in Test cricket with both sides fielding new-look squads for the forthcoming first Test in Karachi.
The teams also face the challenge of switching to the longer form of the game from the shortest, following their contrasting fortunes in the inaugural Twenty20 world championships in South Africa.
For the first game in the two-Test series here, the tourists have dropped veteran all-rounder Shaun Pollock, while Pakistan are playing without experienced batsman and former captain Inzamam-ul-Haq.
This is the first time that the 34-year-old Pollock has been left out of the team after taking 416 wickets in 107 Tests-leaving the door open for the Proteas to inject new talent in the form of Morne Morkel and Dale Steyn.
