 He also said that Mohammad Asif cannot be compared with the current Pakistan bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi. 

"Mohammad Asif was the toughest Pakistan bowler I faced. His skill level was very high. Asif used to swing the ball, and you cannot compare him with Shaheen Shah Afridi," said Robin Uthappa.

This statement from Uthappa highlights the talent and skill of Asif as a bowler and his impact on the game during his playing days.

 Asif is considered one of the best bowlers that Pakistan has ever produced; he was known for his swing bowling and ability to take wickets consistently.

 His career was unfortunately plagued by controversies, and was banned for spot-fixing in 2010.
