Amir, who is currently a part of the London Spirit squad in the inaugural edition of ‘The Hundred’ has been of the most highly regarded bowlers in the world ever since his comeback to cricket in 2015. His recent form has been worrisome as he has been unable to pick wickets regularly, which saw him being dropped from the international side.
The 29-year old recently retired from international cricket due to differences with the Pakistan team management. He has since been taking part in various franchise leagues around the world. He is one of only two Pakistani players taking part in cricket’s newest competition and his performances in the tournament have caught the attention of cricketing experts.
Kevin Pietersen, while on commentary during the encounter between London Spirit and Southern Brave, regarded Amir as one of the finest bowlers in world cricket today.
