LONDON: England could play a World XI if Pakistan pull out of Monday`s Twenty/20 game in the ongoing dispute over the actions of captain Inzamam-ul-Haq in the final test at the Oval in London.
The England and Wales Cricket Board has received approval from ICC to approach leading world players to form an international XI in case of the unlikely eventuality of the game being unable to proceed.
However ECB chief executive David Collier has stressed that talks between the England and Pakistan boards indicated that the Twenty/20 match and the five-match one-day international series that follows would go ahead as scheduled.Collier also says "a further contingncy plan" has been agreed with the ICC and Pakistan for the one-day series.
Pakistani members of parliament have come out in support of Inzamam and his team in their ball-tampering row with the ICC and Australian umpire Darrell Hair.The disciplinary hearing into the charges against Inzamam has been postponed due to the unavailability of adjudicator Ranjan Madugalle of Sri Lanka.
No new date has been announced. End.
