Sounds like he must have a visa then. Surely Pakistan wouldn't pick a player with no hope of travelling...

Wow. People should stop lying when they grow a beard, followed by full medals-on-the-table outburst by Moyo!

To be fair, being an English teacher is a much more admirable profession than being a cricketer.

all speculation in my part but are sport men even allowed to miss any games for their country.

remember reading in the past that England has to give visa to player that are playing an international game in this country and I am guessing this will be the case in all countries, Although no idea why there are still delays for this, 2011 was a joke.

It is quite possible PCB can fight to get amir a visa.
