KARACHI: Pakistan star pacer Wahab Riaz said he wants to rejoin the team as soon as possible in order to help Pakistan team to qualify for the International Cricket Council (ICC) champions trophy.
The 30-year-old was hit on the glove during the second Test by Sri Lankan fast-bowling sensation Dushmantha Chameera, which resulted in a non-displaced fracture of the base of the fourth MCP bone.
Wahab was flown back to Pakistan as he required three weeks to recover, according to team physio Brad Robinson.
With Pakistan involved in a five-match ODI series against the Islanders — a series they lead 1-0 —Wahab is hoping that he is able to regain fitness and join the squad, with two T20s to follow.
