Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq today said fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar was not certain to play in the second cricket Test against South Africa, beginning tomorrow in Port Elizabeth, despite being fit and available for selection.
8220;It has not yet been decided if he would play although he is fully fit,8221; Inzamam told a cricket website.
There was plenty of bad blood between Shoaib and Inzamam when the Rawalpindi Express was not selected in the original team despite being cleared of a doping charge by an appeals tribunal of the Pakistan Cricket Board.
Inzamam, however, said there would be two or three changes to the line-up with Mohammad Yousuf and bowler Umar Gul, making their return to the team.
