PCB Optimistic About UK Issuing a Visa to Tainted Amir |

The Pakistan Cricket Board is optimistic that tainted left arm pacer Mohammad Amir will be issued a visa to travel to the United Kingdom with the Pakistan squad next month.
A top PCB official told PTI that while it was obvious that being a convicted offender Amir couldn't apply for a visa for a certain period of time but he could be issued a visa as an exception.
"The good thing is that he wasn't technically deported from the UK like the other two -- Salman Butt and Mohammad Asif -- in the spot fixing case," the official said.
PCB's legal advisor Tafazzul Rizvi said that while Butt was deported after serving half of his sentence under a agreement, Amir was "administratively removed" from the UK.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
