Yesterday's match at Lord's was Amir's first appearance in a Test since the infamous spot fixing clash against England at 'the home of cricket' in 2010.
Richardson, a qualified lawyer, was less enthusiastic about compulsory life-bans. "Each case should be treated on its merits. You cannot hang everybody," he said.
