"Umar Akmal could not pass the fitness test although all other players passed it" : Inzamam-ul-Haq
Inzamam-ul-Haq speaking to the media:
"Fitness is very important as is the performance of every player for selection"
"Action will be taken against any player who disturbs the concentration or the focus of the team"
"We took action regarding lapses in discipline before and we will do it again as needed"
"Azhar Ali is a good player and it is not the case that he is not being considered but we want to give chances to younger players"
"It is possible that during the CT in England due to conditions there, we may give a chance to some senior players also"
"If we were talking about the West Indies team of decades ago, then I would agree that this would be a tough tour to try out youngsters"
"This tour will be a great time for our youngsters to learn"
"Umar Akmal could not pass the fitness test although all other players did pass that test"
"We cannot select all 31 players for the squad and we wanted to give a chance to some youngsters"
"We have always had 2 keepers in the squad and if needed during the upcoming series, Kamran can also do the job of a keeper"
"Kamran was the best keeper in PSL but his batting form is what we need to make use of"
"Even for a youngster to travel with the team and to share the dressing room with seniors is very useful experience"
"If you dont maintain fitness then you wont be included"
"Umar is an excellent player and we also needed him but even then we did not include him"
"We have rested Mohammad Amir as he has been constantly been playing since the tour of England"
"He is our main strike bowler and he needs rest; he is included in ODIs as those are important games for us in terms of World Cup qualification"
"If you see Asif Zakir, he has done very well in One Days and we want to select players who have been good in that format"
"Yasir Shah is our main bowler in Tests and we did consider him for One-Day format as well"
"Sohail Khan was not considered because we wish to give a chance to younger bowlers"
"We didnt discard anyone as we called most players to the camp but we must give chances to youngsters"
"We cannot invite 40-50 players to a 6 day camp as you cannot practice like that so we have to be selective"
"We will include youngsters who have performed well in FC in the Test camp"

They don't even allow us to eat such food during club games in the Birmingham league!
