Pakistan cricket chief seeks talks with runaway Haider


(CNN) -- Pakistan cricket officials want to speak to AWOL wicketkeeper Zulqarnain Haider about his reported retirement, which followed alleged threats to the player and his family.
Zakir Khan, the director of cricket operations for the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), told CNN on Tuesday that he was trying to track down the 24-year-old, who left the national team's hotel in Dubai without notice on Monday and headed for Britain.
According to media reports, Haider retired from international cricket on Tuesday morning having flown to London, where he was pictured arriving at Heathrow airport.
Pakistan completed a one-day series against South Africa on Monday in the Middle East, where Haider was allegedly threatened for not helping to fix matches before leaving.
