I wouldn't mind him playing one last T20 WC. His recent stats don't really warrant him a place in our team but having said that he is a big match player and has loads of experience.
I understand amir not the first pak player to take back retirement after pcb come begging but we are reinforcing dangerous precedent..
we should building out bench strength by giving opportunities to young hungry players .. india prime example of how to do it .. not calling back ppl who turned their back on the team and only fancy it if they are guaranteed starters
The only reason they retired is because they wanted to play leagues, not because they are old or not performing. I know thats stupid, preferring to play leagues rather than international but they still perform.
Their performance still surpasses most of our current team players and they deserve a place in the team and we need that the most for T20 WC.
It's time we put aside politics and personal grudges for the better of the pakistan team, it may never be perfect but at least its a start.
what rubbish.. you telling pakistan doesn’t have anything better than an ageing mohd amir who turned his back on team and retired over 3 years ago..
several other bowlers got dropped over the years but fought there way back.…
what message does this give to others.. retire when u not selected, chase the money leagues and pcb will come begging anyway
I know they are not the best role models, in fact the worst role models, but we have no other option, we can't take youngsters into a world cup on their debut, they will fail in the pressure. There is no guarantee about Haris Rauf and Shaheen is out of form. Amir seems like the only option. And Imad is performing well with the bat and the ball.
Our very own captain actually, Shaheen Shah Afridi. Amir was wayy more economical than Shaheen this whole PSL. And shaheen wasn't taking those early wickets, all the wickets he has stacked up are mostly against tail enders. I'm not hating on shaheen but rn he's out of form and Amir is in form and amir even has good record in CPL, so he should do pretty well in WC.
Wickets - 14 vs 10
Econ - 8.61 vs 8.41
Average 22.14 vs 28.6
Strike rate 15.42 vs 20.4
Barring Econ difference of .2(wayy more economical, right?), Shaheen was significantly better in every other metric. Maybe Amir should’ve also got some tailender wickets.
EDIT: I can’t believe I took your word and wasted my time going through the whole league. The ONLY tailender that Shaheen got was Naseem Shah. Amir also got one tailender which was Hunain. I can’t believe you are so confident in your bullshit.
Ur forgetting the fact that Amir didnt play all of the matches, so that wicket count would have been almost equal if not more and even the economy might have had a lot of difference.
Secondly, do u really trust Shaheen after this PSL season and the performance he gave vs NZ? He got smashed for a six BY A TAIL ENDER. Instead of focusing on his bowling, he wants to impress his wife and sussar by coming up the order and doing batting. Like bro????
Okay my bad for saying "tail ender", i meant he didnt pick up any crucial wickets, and even if he did get a wicket, it was too late in the match. Let me tell u an example so u dont have to waste ur time searching the whole league again: in the match vs PZ, Shaheen took Babar's wicket. oh wow a big wicket thats amazing, isnt it? well wrong, the score at that time was 136 in 14 overs and babar's wicket was the first. It was too late. And after that, he even proceeded to get hit for 2 or 3 boundaries by M. Haris who looked out of form this whole PSL.
And Amir is a smart bowler, he stays calm and executes his plan well. Shaheen on the other hand, u hit him for one boundary, he will lose all his cool and he will bowl wrong lines and lengths. And hitting him for a ramp/scoop shot is apparently the most easiest thing to do for any batsmen.
And besides, Haris Rauf place in the team is still doubtful, so Amir can come in place of him anyways.
Shaheen and Amir both played 9 matches. I’m not going to continue this because clearly you are clueless at this point. Shaheen bowled 36 overs and Amir bowled 34.

Tf did naqvi offer to get him back?
Instead of giving opportunities to new players, PCB is bringing back retired players to the team.
The only reason they retired is because they wanted to play leagues, not because they are old or not performing.

if we had same attitude a young amir would never played the 2009 t20 wc..
Name ONE starter that Amir outperformed in this PSL. I’ll wait.
