Inzamam praises Kamran

Published December 16, 2005

KARACHI, Dec 15: Pakistan captain Inzamamul Haq said on Thursday that the team were looking to wrap-up the five match series by winning the next two One-day Internationals in Rawalpindi to take the series 4-1.

He paid great compliments to wicket-keeper Kamran Akmal for his superb second successive hundred which played an important role in Pakistan’s imposing 165 runs victory.

“Kamran Akmal is a team man and he can play in any position in the interest of the team. We tried him to open the innings and he lived up to our expectations with two wonderful hundreds,” Inzamam said.

Kamran made a magnificent 102 in Lahore off 111 balls and scored 109 here off same number of balls.

Inzamam said they will continue to play with the best available players and will make no experiment by including youngsters as England was quite capable of bouncing back in the series.—APP
