Mohammad Amir, who played 36 Tests, 61 ODIs, and 50 T20Is in which he scalped a total of 259 wickets, recently announced his retirement.
Shoaib Akhtar suggested that Amir shouldn't have retired for his issues with the management but instead, he "should have bowled well and improved his performance".
Mohammad Amir, the 28-year-old left-arm pacer has said that he would release a detailed statement after reaching Pakistan in a few more days.
Mohammad Amir, after making his international comeback in 2016, played all the three formats for Pakistan almost without rest for a span of three years.
"Would like to advice future cricketers against making same mistake."
"He is a top-class performer and this is the right time to groom him," Pakistan's coach said.
Asif did not like the fact that Amir retired from the longest format of the game at the age of 27, saying he let PCB down with his decision.
Asif remembered the days when he made the ball talk and created a lasting impression on players like Wasim Akram and Mudassar Naazar.
The 51-year-old cautioned that leaving a match-winner like Amir out of the T20 World Cup squad could prove to be detrimental for the team.
Amir in July last year had announced his retirement from Test cricket with immediate effect, however, the left-arm bowler has been playing for Pakistan in the white-ball game till date.
