London: Bob Woolmer may soon resign as the coach of the Pakistan cricket team as his relation with the team management has 'descended into acrimony' following the sensational ball-tampering row, a leading British newspaper claims Wednesday (24 Aug, 2006). Woolmer is believed to be angry at team manager Zaheer Abbas' lack of focussed leadership in the fall-out to Sunday's controversial forfeiture of the fourth Test against England.Woolmer is 'reaching the end of his tether' and it will be no surprise if he resigns at the end of the one-day series against England."Woolmer's relations with Zaheer and captain Inzamam-ul-Haq have descended into acrimony," the report says.Inzamam, on his part, feels that he can no longer trust his coach and suspects Woolmer of briefing the Pakistan Cricket Board behind his back.The realization that they have forfeited a Test has slowly dawned on the Pakistan cricket authorities and there will be a major investigation into what exactly happened in the Oval dressing room on Sunday (20 Aug, 2006)."For the first time, details of what happened in the dressing room can be revealed. A picture has emerged of a confused and angry place where there was a lot of shouting and different advice being thrown at Inzamam," it says.It is thought that Inzamam does not quite realize what his team had been accused of until he reached the dressing room.
