Does deserve a warm welcome


Does deserve a warm welcome

The 29-year-old former Pakistan pace man Mohammad Asif, who  was jailed by a court in London in November last year, will be released from a British prison after completing half of his one-year sentence. He was found guilty of conspiring to cheat and conspiring to accept corrupt payments over deliberate no-balls bowled during the Lord's Test against England in August 2010.

Mohammad Asif.
Asif was considered as one of the fastest rising pace man at the international level and he had taken 106 wickets in 23 Tests. He also had 46 wickets in 36 one-day internationals.
It sounds like corruption, Spot Fixing, in world of cricket has been an on-going thing that was not aware of, and until David Moulson wrote about Spot Fixing. This turned out to be a major eye opener in sport of cricket.
Do you think that Mohammad Asif will be treated the same way after this whole saga?
