Azhar, Hafeez 'boycott' Pakistan training camp

Lahore, Dec 24 : Pakistan’s One-Day Intertiol (ODI) captain Azhar Ali and opener Mohammad Hafeez boycotted a fitness training camp on Thursday that also included spot-fixing tainted pacer Mohammad Amir. Amir’s bid to make a comeback to the tiol side was given a major boost last week after the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) inducted the fast bowler in a camp for 26 players which also includes T20 captain Shahid Afridi.

The board on Wednesday issued a statement backing Amir’s return to the tiol set-up saying “even Islam calls for forgiveness in such cases.” IANS
