Inzamam's career: the dark days begin
Inzamam is infuriated when his team is accused of cheating and refuses to come back out with them after tea on day four at The Oval
With Asif back from injury, suddenly Pakistan were competitive again and they were on top in the fourth Test when Inzamam was caught up in the biggest controversy of his career.

Umpire Darrell Hair accused the tourists of ball-tampering, which infuriated the captain and his team failed to return after tea in protest.

Eventually they were persuaded to come back out but Hair had already ruled that the Test had been forfeited and, despite prolonged talks, that was how it stayed for the first time in history.

Inzamam was subsequently charged with ball-tampering and bringing the game in disrepute.
