No sympathy for Pak: Broad

Sep 07, 2010 |

Cardiff: Stuart Broad said on Monday that he had no sympathy for the Pakistan players engulfed in a ‘spot-fixing’ row.

England paceman Broad played alongside Asif at English county side Leicestershire and was such an admirer of the Pakistani’s skills he’d planned to speak to him ahead of England’s defence of the Ashes later this year about how to bowl in Australia.

But asked if he sympathised in any way with the situation the Pakistan trio found themselves in and the media storm encircling the team as a whole, Broad said: “Sympathy? No.

“At the end of the day you’ve got one job and that’s to perform on the pitch,” he added.
