This is amazing how quickly they spotted the troublemaker for English batsman and were first to hire him. Good for Asif. I don’t know why this county sounds familiar to me :o They are famous for appreciating talent I believe.
Re: M. Asif gets £50,000 contract from Worcestershire for next season
I dont think its a big amount. Worcs would be getting a pretty good international bowler quite cheaply I think. Depends what the contract is though. I guess its good in the sense that he does get good conditions to play in, get professional coaching and facilities and polish his skills. And thats just extra money if he gets some international matches with pakistan as well. Its definitely good considering his current pay most probably. Good for him. Talented guy.

The only international outing he had, he didnt really prove to be an international quality bowler. He has improved a lot since then, according to Bob Woolmer but it's still yet to be seen if he can succeed at the international level. Considering that it is a pretty decent amount he will get for playing county.
Re: M. Asif gets £50,000 contract from Worcestershire for next season
50 k isnt a big deal my friend. But yes, thats what I said as well, that considering his current employment and pay, its pretty good. All I said was that worcs are getting something pretty good at a pretty cheap rate. And when u play for pakistan, ur an international player.... having said that,, in the original post, by international, I meant an overseas player for their team. They are normally quite expensive... 50k isnt that expensive.
