Inzamam heads for Yorkshire

17 January 2007
The 37-year-old batsman will replace international team-mate Younis Khan, who is leaving to link up with Pakistan ahead of the ICC World Twenty20 in South Africa.
A statement on the county's website, www.yorkshireccc.com, read: "Yorkshire have stated their determination to maintain their challenge for the LV Championship title in the strongest possible terms by signing former Pakistan Test captain Inzamam-ul-Haq."
Inzamam relinquished the captaincy of his country - and called an end to his one-day international career - after Pakistan's ignominious exit from the World Cup but has stated his desire to continue as a Test player.
He was not handed a new contract by the PCB this year, but the statement went on to affirm his commitment to the game.
"His involvement with Yorkshire means that his first-class career is still very much alive," it added.
Inzamam has played 119 Tests for his country and 378 ODIs.
