Three Pakistan cricketers implicated in a match-fixing controversy have asked not to play in the team's remaining matches in Britain, the Pakistan High Commissioner said on Thursday.
Wajid Shamsul Hasan told reporters after a meeting with captain Salman Butt and pace bowlers Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif that the trio had suffered "mental torture" and were not in the right frame of mind to play.
The commissioner added that he believed in their innocence and Pakistan could take legal action to defend them.
