Shoaib - Woolmer spat to be investigated

I'm just following up on the argument between Woolmer and Shoaib on the morning of the 2nd day of the 2nd test match against South Africa. Details are starting to emerge. From Dawn.com...

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has refused to comment on a reported exchange of hot words between paceman Shoaib Akhtar and coach Bob Woolmer prior to the start of the second day’s play of the second Test against South Africa at Port Elizabeth on Saturday.

A PCB spokesman, however, confirmed that team manager Talat Ali will be holding a hearing after the day's play to find out the truth and the board will only issue a statement after that.

The spokesman added that Talat, a former Test opener, had summoned both Shoaib and Woolmer for the hearing. Leading TV channels of the country also reported the incident.

Neil Manthrop in the Sunday Telegraph believes the tiff probably has to do with Shoaib's sudden injury...

As well as the day finished for the tourists, it started horribly with a row between Shoaib and coach Bob Woolmer, once the fast bowler had ruled himself out of the rest of the Test with a hamstring strain. Fingers were pointed and chests were jabbed as Woolmer reminded Shoaib of his duty to be genuinely fit before declaring himself to be so.

Well...Let's wait and see what happens.
