Welcoming the announcement by the cricket authorities that they can play for the national team again, Pakistan's senior Test players Mohammad Yousuf and Abdul Razzaq have said there was no greater pride than playing for the country.

The two players with a combined experience of 125 Tests and 500 one-day internationals between them were yesterday cleared by the Pakistan Board to play for the national team again and are expected to make the squad for the Test tour of Sri Lanka from June 27.
