LAHORE, Nov 1: Test paceman Mohammad Sami is likely to replace injured Mohammad Asif, if the latter is ruled out for the entire tour of India.

It has been learnt that Sami’s performance in the ongoing Quaid-i-Azam Trophy is being watched closely by the selectors who are seeking Asif’s replacement.

Asif, due to an elbow injury, could not accompany the Pakistan squad that left for New Delhi on Thursday.
