Hearing toughest test of my career, says Aamir
LAHORE: "This is the toughest period of my life but I am confident that it will be over and I will be playing for Pakistan soon," said Aamir.
Talking to a group of reporters at the airport, he said: "I have always played five-day Test matches, but the upcoming hearing in Doha would not only be the longest but the toughest test of my career. I am hopeful that like the on-field matches, I would be able to perform well in this test (hearing) too," he said.
Aamir said his priority was to clear his name. "My lawyer has prepared the case extensively and I hope that I will be cleared," said Aamir, who is accused of delivering deliberate no-balls during the Lord's Test for money - a charge he has denied.
Suspended pacer M Aamir who will learn off his fate in the spot-fixing case in the next few days has described the last few months as the toughest period of his life. The 18-year-old also felt that the ICC anti-corruption tribunal hearing in Doha from January 6 to 11 as the longest and toughest test of his career.
"I want a decision from the ICC on my suspension and on the case as soon as possible. Aamir reiterated that he had not done anything wrong, adding that he had full faith in the rule of law and hoped to come out clean after the hearing.
Aamir also appealed to the nation to pray for him as well as Butt and Asif. Aamir, who hit the headlines in the 2009 World T20 Cup, has captured 51 wickets in just 14 Test matches with three five-wicket hauls.
Salman Butt, M Aamir and M Asif suspended over allegations of spot-fixing left on Tuesday for Qatar to appear at an international tribunal that could ban them from the game or slap heavy fines.
An International Cricket Council (ICC) anti-corruption tribunal headed by Michael Beloff QC will hear the case in Doha from January 6-11. The two other members of the tribunal are Albie Sachs of South Africa and Sharad Rao of Kenya.
