Asif to star for Leicestershire??

[flashyfox]

Seems Asif, our new overseas signing has exploded onto the international stage. Took 11 wickets in the match against Sri Lanka. Let's hope he has the same impact at grace road this summer!

Only half the summer that's the problem.....

I know its a shame. Any news on who will replace him. Munaf Patel i heard was out of the running, Tim Boon said on radio Leicester last night.

This article made me a bit angry. If we are paying his wages then we should be able to bowl him as we see fit. Its not our job to take the Pakistan test team into account. Ais should either play at 100% or he shouldn't play.

I'd probably sign a batting all rounder as a replacement. I'd like Jacob Oram or Chris Gayle.

I read that as well.......like the idea of Gayle or Oram in preference to Mongia but we definitely have to get another seamer IMO...
