Asif also lamented Amir’s lack of compassion saying, if PCB has invested in you, it’s your duty to rescue them when needed. “If the PCB had done the same for me”, he added, “I’d still be available to rescue Pakistan in Test cricket for the next two years. I know there are fitness standards, but I can work that out and whatever is required I can do it”.

Mohammad Amir represented Pakistan in 36 Tests, taking 119 wickets at 30.47 while Mohammad Asif picked up 106 wickets at an astonishing 24.36 in 23 matches.
