In an interview to The Indian Express Woolmer had said “Shoaib is not an integral part of the team.”

“Woolmer is a part of Pakistan team management who earns his bread and butter from the hard earned public money. The PCB should ask him how he dared to utter such silly words,” Sohail was quoted as saying by The News.

Sohail said woolmer’s job was only to stick to his workand not to indulge in mud-slinging. The former skipper said one never knew if Shoaib’s presence in the Pakistan team could have won them Test series as well against India. “I believe that had he (Shoaib) been in India, Pakistan would have won the Test series as well.”
