Former Pakistan skipper Javed Miandad has lashed out at the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for recalling Mohammad Asif, Salman Butt and Mohammad Amir play active cricket.
According to local media reports former captain Miandad warned, “They (the trio) have been involved in major offences and allowing them to return to the game of cricket at any level will be a wrong move. Their return will mean replacing them with someone else who has worked hard and has done nothing wrong, I think they should be made an example for others”.
“Several renowned international footballers and other sportspersons vanished from the scene in the past just because they cheated their nations. Their medals and awards were taken back. Today nobody knows them. Although they have served their punishment, but as they have been involved in fixing the game by taking money and bringing a bad name for the country they don’t deserve a second chance now,” added Miandad.
Miandad, who has also served PCB as director general from 2009 to 2014, still holds the record for the most runs scored by a Pakistani cricketer in Tests.
