Inzamam back in action
Tour match, Harare, day one: Pakistan 352-5 v Zimbabwe A

Inzamam-ul-Haq
One of Inzamam's sixes landed on a nearby golf course
Inzamam-ul-Haq marked his return to action following a heel injury with an aggressive half century as Pakistan piled up the runs on the opening day of their tour.

He made 63 off 62 balls, including two sixes, to give the tourists a timely boost following their recent 3-0 defeat by Australia.

Pakistan were given an excellent start by Saleem Elahi (49) and Taufeeq Umer, who put on 127 for the first wicket.

Umer collected 12 boundaries in his 86 and Younis Khan later weighed in with 84 before he was caught off Campbell MacMillan in the first over of the new ball.

Younis also played a part in Yousuf Youhana's unlucky dismissal, run out for one when Blessing Mahwire deflected a straight drive onto the stumps at the bowler's end with his foot.

Pakistan slipped from 272 for two from 312 for five, but Hasan Raza (32) and Shahid Afridi (21) rounded the day off with an unbroken stand worth 40.

They will hope to see the total past 400 on the second day before unleashing paceman Shoaib Akhtar against the youthful home side.

Pakistan play two Tests and five one-day internationals
