He said, 'He was advised to do so by many people but he flatly refused to accept this advice.'

Cricket Pakistan quoted this former fast bowler as saying, 'When I started playing cricket I was told that you can't bowl fast and to get a good speed like 100 mph (160 km / h) Drugs will have to be used. But I always refused to do so. The 45-year-old former player, known as Rawalpindi Express, said in his statement, "Similar advice was given to Mohammad Aamir before the 2010 tour of England. After that he moved to Buri Sangat. '
