Multan, Mar 31: Left-arm speedster Zaheer Khan will not take further part in the ongoing first cricket Test against Pakistan because of a muscle strain. Team Manager Ratnakar Shetty said the bowler had strained his muscle in the right leg and would not be able to play in the match.

"A detailed report on his condition will be available later in the day. At the moment we are assessing his condition," he said.

After bowling just one over today in Pakistan's first innings on the fourth day, Zaheer left the ground and did not come back to bowl during the second innings. He returned figures of 23-6-76-1 in the first knock. Bureau Report
