Whenever an interrogative sentence is to change into Indirect speech, we use asked instead of said to.
And the tense is also changed. Here,the tense is present perfect,it has to be changed into past perfect tense. Also there is interrogative sign in the end lf direct speech which gets changed into full stop in indirect speech.

It has to be in Inverted speech.
Direct speech can be used to convey something that is being said in the present or to tell someone about something that is to happen at a later point of time.
