We were not exactly going out of our way to help them, at that point we were desperate and decided to make the most of it by picking Afghan players.

I agree they are playing in XI only because pakistani players are not playing. But, AFAIK, each team has to buy 1 player from Associate countries whether they play him or not. Etai ba kom ki ?  |
