Bob Woolmer said he would continue in his post as Pakistan coach, although he admitted he had contemplated resigning in the wake of the ball-tampering row that has threatened to wreck the teams tour of England.
 
And, in a separate announcement, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Shaharyar Khan insisted the side would go ahead with the one-day international leg of the tour. 
Woolmer, who some press reports suggested was on the verge of resigning, said: Throughout this whole affair I have remained solidly behind the Pakistan team and captain. I did contemplate resigning as I am 58 and at an age where I do not need these things in my career and life, the former England batsman admitted. I was very 'down' at the time but I feel it is important now to stay strong at this time. I have always been 100 percent with the team and the captain," Woolmer added.LATEST SCORES
