BUFFALO PARK: Pakistan team has travelled to South Africa for the playing series including 3 test matches, 5 One Days and 2 T20 international matches. A bad news for the Pakistani camp arose when their test opening batsmen Taufeeq Umar was injured during the practice session on Friday. Taufeeq Umar is not able to be a part of the ongoing match between Pakistan and the South African Invitation XI due to current injury and his inclusion for the first test against South Africa is now doubtful.
During the practice session Taufeeq was hit on the calf by ball in warm up match. Taufeeq Umar has been a regular part of Pakistan test team though his last series against Sri Lanka was not remarkable where he was able to score just one half century.
According to the sources the decision for Tafeeq Umar will be taken in the upcoming two days. Pakistan Capitan Misbah-ul-Haq is very confident with his team preparation and hopes to start the series with a win.
