KARACHI: Two years have elapsed since Pakistan walked out of the infamous Oval Test and former skipper Inzamam-ul-Haq says he does not regret the decision and would take the same decision again if history repeats itself. “I have no regrets at all. I did what I did because Hair (Darrell) had called us cheats, he called the Pakistan cricketers cheats. It was a slur on our team and nation, and I can’t tolerate that,” Inzamam said in a television interview on Friday. “Even the ICC match referee Ranjan Madugalle said later at the hearing that Hair had acted in haste and didn’t use his authority properly,” Inzamam said. Inzamam made it clear that no matter what people said he feels he took the right decision. He added that he had the support of the players. “I will say again that if this incident was to happen again, I would do the same thing. Hair called us cheats and the ICC adjudicator later cleared us of the same charge,” he said. He said he was happy that the ICC recently reversed the result of the Oval Test to a draw from a win for England but said it didn’t really matter much to him. — PTI
