Well, in my opinion, the ban was absolutely fair. Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammad Asif got what they deserved.
The International Cricket Council's laws says that a person testing positive for banned substances should be given a one-year ban at least.
If the two people in question did test positive, they obviously had to be banned.
Asif's career isn't going to be affected much, because he's still young. However, he was lucky to get only a one-year ban.
But I suppose Akhtar might not make it back, given his age.
All the same, Mohammad Asif and Shoaib Akhtar got what they deserved.
