The International Cricket Council (ICC) today announced that Waqar Younis and Adam Gilchrist will be inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame later this week.
Waqar, a former Pakistan captain, will join the exclusive club during the first Twenty20 International between Pakistan and Sri Lanka at Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai Sports City on 11 December, while two days later in Perth, former Australia wicketkeeper Gilchrist will be honoured during the tea interval of the third Ashes Test match between Australia and England at the WACA.
Waqar and Gilchrist become the 70th and 71st male members of the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame.
