Injured Yousuf to fly back

Dubai: Pakistan's star batsman Mohammad Yousuf will miss the Test series against South Africa.

"Yousuf, who is suffering from a groin injury will fly back to Pakistan and will not be available for second Test in Abu Dhabi," remarked Intikhab Alam, the manager of the Pakistan team.

Pakistan team has not asked for a replacement. Yousuf 's absence is a big blow for the Pakistan team who were depending on him to strengthen their middle order.
