Coach Richard Pybus then called off the game and led the players back to the dressing room. They re-emerged 20 minutes later to resume training in the nets, while Inzamam was driven back to the team hotel.
Skipper Waqar Younis said: "It's nothing new. We always have this problem when we play soccer."
Asked if any players would face disciplinary action, he replied: "No."
Pakistan must win their game against Zimbabwe to have any chance of staying in the tournament, although even then they are likely to go out on run rate.
