Pakistan drop demand for early hearing of Inzamam Case
Pakistan Times Sports Desk

KARACHI: Pakistan have dropped their plan to ask the International Cricket Council (ICC) to hold a hearing into The Oval imbroglio before Monday.

Team manager Zaheer Abbas said that after lengthy consultations it had been decided Pakistan would wait until after the one-day series ended on Sept. 10 for the hearing to take place.

"There was an opinion we should ask the ICC to have the hearing before the one-day series to close this issue but since both boards have agreed on having Ranjan Madugalle as the adjudicator it has been decided to wait until he is available," Abbas told a foreign news agency in London.

Earlier, a Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) official said the PCB was willing to accept a replacement adjudicator to speed up the process after a postponement was caused by the enforced absence of ICC chief referee Madugalle.

"Madugalle's sister has had a serious accident and the reasons for postponing the hearing are genuine. Our legal advisers also felt it was best to wait," Abbas said.●
