LONDON, Feb 20: Authorities at English county Yorkshire are upset with Pakistan fast bowler Rana Naved-ul-Hasan after he joined the Indian Cricket League (ICL) despite fears that he could aggravate his shoulder injury.
Naved is due to arrive at Yorkshire in June, but was only expected to start playing top-level cricket in the same month as his shoulder is still giving him trouble.
Yorkshire Chief Executive Stewart Regan warned the 30-year-old pacer that the county could review his contract.
“We have written a strong letter to the player and his agent, expressing our concern,” Regan said. “We have advised Naved that we are not happy and we reserve the right to review his contract when he comes here.
“If there are any suggestions that his injury has been aggravated by playing in that tournament, it could impact on the contract he has to play for us in 2008 and 2009,” he added.—Agencies
