"I am pleased to hear that Bob [Woolmer] was not murdered," writes Inzamam-ul-Haq in The Telegraph. "All the boys will feel the same, as I'm sure his family will also. But this verdict will never take away one of the toughest periods in our lives. It was a nightmare."
I was one of the few who saw Bob lying in his room and it was very upsetting. We had become close as captain and coach over the three years he had spent with the Pakistan team. We were already very down and depressed after losing to Ireland. We knew we had let our country down and that we would be leaving the World Cup. Then to go through all that we did, with police interviews and with the world's media after us, it was very, very tough. As I said, they were the hardest days I have known.
