 Kaneria made his Test debut against England |
Essex's Danish Kaneria has reiterated his commitment to Pakistan after it was reported he was considering playing for the English national side. He told the Essex website: "I did not say that I wanted to stay over here and qualify to play for England. I still want to play for Pakistan. "If Pakistan didn't select me for three or four years in a row, only then would I consider coming here permanently." The 27-year-old leg-spinner has so far taken 220 wickets in 51 Test matches.  | My priority is with Pakistan for as long as they need me Essex leg-spinner Danish Kaneria |

Kaneria has taken 24 wickets in the LV County Championship and 18 wickets in the Twenty20 Cup. He added: "My priority is with Pakistan for as long as they need me in Test cricket. In fact, I am always there for them in any form of the game - Pakistan has given me the name to be playing cricket in England."
