Amir should have been banned for life: Graeme Swann - chairman - 07-09-2016 Graeme Swann, former England offspinner, believes that Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir should have never been allowed back in the game after he was banned for five years following the spot-fixing scandal of 2010. In his column for The Sun on Thursday (July 8), Swann wrote that Amir's return 'sickens' him. "Mohammad Amir will walk out on the green and glorious turf at Lord's on Thursday -- and it will make me feel sick," Swann wrote. "This is a man who crushed the morality of the game. And yet he is being allowed back to play at the Home of Cricket. Amir should have been banned for life for his part in the corruption scandal of 2010.
