Rahul Dravid has revealed that he would be delighted to see disgraced bowler Mohammad Amir return to international cricket.

Amir is currently serving a five-year ban for his part in a spot-fixing scandal which included his Pakistan teammates Mohammad Asif and Salman Butt.

Despite the scandal, Dravid hopes that the 19-year-old will return after his suspension.

The former India batsman told BBC Sport: "He's a superb player and when he's served his ban, I'd hope he'd be able to come back.

"We all want him to come back at some stage and I don't know whether that's ... it's going to be a challenge.

"I hope he can do it, it would be great if he can."

Dravid has recently retired from international cricket after a career which included 36 Test centuries.
