Disgraced Pakistan paceman Mohammad Asif told AFP Thursday he was ready to face fans’ abuse when he returns to cricket after a five-year ban for spot-fixing, vowing to change
their minds with his performances.
Asif is free to play again from September 2 after the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced he had completed his punishment for his part in a 2010 spot-fixing scandal in England.
The ICC relaxed the ban on Amir earlier in the year, allowing him to play domestic matches, and said Wednesday Butt and Asif would be eligible from next month.
