Thirty year old fast bowler, Muhammad Asif made his test debut versus Australia in 2005. He was also in news for various incidents like scandal with actor Veena Malik. He was tested positive for steroids twice. He was caught with a recreational drug in his wallet at Dubai airport and kept in detention for three weeks. Most seriously he was charged in 2010 with spot-fixing – bowling pre-planned, deliberate no-balls – and in February 2011 he was handed a seven-year ban, with two years suspended, by the ICC.
