Hafeez refuses to play alongside Amir in BPL

Pakistan's batsman Mohammad Hafeez turned down an offer from Chittagong Vikings to feature in the Bangladesh Premier League as the franchise had already signed tainted fast bowler Mohammad Amir.

Hafeez reportedly turned down an offer of around 10 million Pakistani rupees as the franchise snapped up Amir in a pre-draft deal.

The former captain said he could not 'share a dressing room with a player who tarnished the image of Pakistan.'

“It is not about individuals or any personality clash. It is about the image of Pakistan cricket. I cannot play with any player who has tarnished and brought a bad name to the country,” Hafeez was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.

“This is my personal opinion and this is not just about Pakistani players, it's about all players,” the 35-year-old added.

“I didn't get a direct offer from the BPL team but some agent came up with the offer and I turned it down only because I didn't want to share a dressing room with that player.”

Looks like poor Hafeez didn't get an offer !!!!

That's funny, I was thinking exactly the same thing!

It's very easy to turn down an offer and stick by your principles if you didn't actually get a direct offer in the first place, or maybe he did, but he tried to negotiate the terms and failed?
