Doctors say that the recovery process is going to be slow because the infection is severe and will take time to be eliminated. I am feeling very weak at the moment and really don't know when I will be able to resume full training and playing cricket again.

It is a terrible blow to me to fall ill at this time just when India is due to arrive in Pakistan.

I have been advised to rest for one week and have undergone tests on a chest infection. The high fever has weakened me. I hope that I will regain fitness before the series.

If we hand the relief items to police we are not sure it will reach the victims.
