Imran to replace injured Sohail in Bangladesh

Pakistan's list of injured players continued to grow as PCB today announced that pace bowler Imran Khan will be replacing the unfit Sohail Khan for the two Tests in Bangladesh.
An official of the PCB said that Imran, who was originally named in the Pakistan A squad that would be touring Sri Lanka from this week, was now being sent to Bangladesh to reinforce the Test squad.
"Sohail Khan has still not recovered completely from his back problem and doctors have advised him further rest," the official said.
"While Imran will fly to Bangladesh young left arm pacer, Zia ul Haq will replace him in the Pakistan A squad," he confirmed.

Sohail was named in the Pakistan squad for all three formats for the Bangladesh tour but a day before the team's departure he complained of a back strain and MRI scans showed he required rehabilitation and rest.
Even before the World Cup the national team has been regularly losing players to injuries and the list has grown including pacemen Junaid Khan, Muhammad Irfan, Bilawal Bhatti, Sohail Khan, Ehsan Adil, leg-spinner Yasir Shah and batsmen Sohaib Maqsood and Mohammad Hafeez missing the action.
