yawar saeed
Andrew Strauss was skeptical about whether the ODI series to follow the Test series would go on as scheduled in the wake of allegations that have emerged in the course of the Lord's Test.
However, Yawar Saeed, insists that not only is the series on but that Pakistan would move beyond the allegations until proved. Here are a few statements he made in the press conference that follwoed the fourth Test of the Pakistan England Test series,
"As far as I am concerned the one-day series is on, we are moving to the West country and we will play all the one-dayers and the T20s.
"As far as the allegations are concerned I would still call them allegations. It's not for me within 24 hours to pass a judgment whether they are true or not.
"We were very sad at the allegations and there is a sombre mood in the dressing room.
"I would not like to say that (that Pakistan cricket is institutionally corrupt ). This is the first time I've been the manager and we've been involved in such a thing. Yes, one has heard and one has read [allegations], but I would not like to go that far."
