Pakistan to press ahead with ODIs
Reuters, Karachi
Pakistan will remain in England for the one-day series despite the unprecedented decision to forfeit the fourth Test at The Oval on Sunday, a senior Pakistan Board official told Reuters."The one-day series has nothing to do with the Test," the PCB's director of cricket operations Saleem Altaf said on Monday. Altaf said the board officials and team management were handling the issue in England. "But as far as I know there are no plans for the team to return home early," he said. "The ODIs are part of our contractual obligation with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB)," he added. Pakistan would face a heavy penalty under the existing International Cricket Council (ICC) regulations if they refused to play the one-day series.
