Pakistani High Commissioner misguided nation, says Rashid Latif
Former Pakistan cricket team captain Rashid Latif has criticised the Pakistani High Commissioner Wajid Shamsul Hassan over his recent statements on the match fixing scandal. 'He has no authority to talk on cricket', said Latif.
FORMER PAKISTAN cricket team captain Rashid Latif has criticised the Pakistani High Commissioner Wajid Shamsul Hassan over his recent statements on the match fixing scandal.
 “He has no authority to talk on cricket”, said former captain in an exclusive interview.
 
He said that only Pakistan Cricket  Board can only talk about the legal action against national players on  spot fixing but High Commisioner has no right to talk on this sensitive issue.
 
Answering a question,  Rashid Latif,  who  has played 37 test  and 166  one-day  internationals  for Pakistan,  said High Commissioner of Pakistan has misguided the whole nation through  his  comments and  he  should  have not talked about legal action  against International Cricket  Council.
 
“On  Friday International Cricket Council  has  suspended  three  Pakistani players over betting scam in which Pakistan Cricket  team captain, Salman Butt, fast bowler Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif  is  included and ICC  has  said if the Pakistani players found  guilty  they could  face life  banned”
 
However, High Commissioner of Pakistan Shams Wajid Hassan strongly  criticized  the  decision of ICC  and  said  that ICC  has  misled  High Commission of Pakistan in this  matter  and  took  the support  of  falsehood.
 
“Chief Executive of ICC Haroon Logat came to meet  me and stayed here at least for one hour. He ensured  me not  to  put unnecessary  pressure  on Pakistani  players and he  did not  talk about the  suspension of  Pakistani players”, he said.
