http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Wahab-Riaz-c95839 charged up for England challenge – Cricket News Update
The Pakistani fast bowler, Wahab Riaz, has been re-called in to the Pakistan Test squad to face http://www.senore.com/Cricket/United-Arab-Emirates-c3033 (UAE). The first Test match of the series starts in Dubai on January 17th, 2012. The fast bowler is geared up for
the ensuing series.
He last played a Test match for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747. There was nothing wrong with his form and fitness, but the
selectors still ignored him, insisting that Wahab had been given rest.
On the contrary, sources within the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) confirmed that Wahab had been sidelined due to his suspect involvement in the spot fixing scandal.
Following the clearance from the International Cricket Council (http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625), the left-arm pacer has been included in the national squad for the high profile series against the Poms.
Wahab spoke about his time out of the national team, referring to it as a testing time.
"It was a testing time for me while I was out of the Pakistan team. But I am just relieved now that I am back in the Pakistan squad and I am rearing to play against England," he said.
Wahab refrained from giving any clear answers on his exclusion, saying that he was clueless.
"It was a nagging situation for me when I was out and it's obviously difficult when you are not part of the national team despite having all the ability to represent it.  But what I know now is that I am ready for yet another stint as I have been playing
a lot of domestic cricket and the stint with English county, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kent-c802 this year has also helped me become an improved bowler,'' added the 26-year-old quick who has played in seven Tests so far.
The Lahore-born pacer stepped into stardom following his magnificent five-wicket haul in the World Cup semi-final against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mohammad-Junaid-Khan-c77037, there is competition for places in the team, but the paceman is determined
to make up for lost time.
