Moin ruled out of 2nd Test
Sunday, April 4 2004
Veteran Pakistan wicket-keeper batsman Moin Khan has been ruled out of the second home Test against India starting Monday in Lahore, because of a groin injury.
According to the Pakistan skipper, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Moin will be replaced by 22-year-old rookie keeper Kamran Akmal.
Akmal has played only four Tests to date, and Monday's match will be his first in Pakistan.
Pakistan are trailing the series 1-0, and thus Moin's experience will be missed for the crucial second Test.
Moin is expected to be fit by the time for the third and final Test of the series.
