Pak tour on, Inzi hearing next month

ICC president Percy Sonn said today that he has received assurances from the PCB that the rest of Pakistan’s England tour—Monday’s Twenty20 match and the 5-match one-day series—will go ahead as planned.

With the hearing into the original charges of ball-tampering and bringing the game in disrepute against Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq scheduled in the second half of September, Sonn said, “The PCB have always said they were going to continue with the series if they could have. I have had a meeting with PCB chairman Shahriyar Khan and ECB chairman David Morgan and I have been assured the tour continues as scheduled.”
