He left Test cricket last year. He was playing two versions of white ball cricket. But it did not land a spot on the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) core contract this year. After that, there was no place in New Zealand’s huge touring fleet. Mohammad Amir was publicly angry after being excluded. But suddenly this left arm pacemaker surprised everyone. He retired from international cricket at the age of 26.
In an interview with a television channel in his home country on Thursday, Aamir said he would quit cricket. He complained to the board that he was the victim of mental torture. The PCB later confirmed Amir’s retirement in an official statement. However, it has been said that even if he does not abandon cricket entirely, he will not be seen in the international arena in the Pakistan jersey.
The statement also thanked Aamir for his contribution to cricket in Pakistan. This means that the relationship between the two sides has reached a snake-neule stage. Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) CEO Wasim Khan spoke to the pacemaker this afternoon (Thursday) after news broke that Mohammad Amir had retired from international cricket. The 26-year-old has told the PCB executive director that he has no interest or desire to play international cricket and that he should not be considered for future international matches. It is a personal decision of Mohammad Amir, which the PCB respects and will not comment now.
Aamir, who did not get a chance to tour New Zealand, was playing in the Lanka Premier League (LPL). The day before the curtain on the event was lowered. Before the PCB statement, Aamir told his country’s media from Sri Lanka: “I am giving up cricket like now. Because I am a victim of mental torture. I cannot bear this torture anymore. 2010 to 2015, too I was a victim of torture. At the time I was being punished (for fixing). Repeatedly, the PCB has invested a lot in me. But I’ll only talk about two people who invested in me: (former PCB president) Najam Sethi and ( former captain) Shahid Afridi ‘.
Explaining his decision, he added: ‘Just that they were both (in my support). The rest of the team said, we don’t want to play with Aamir. Recently, the atmosphere that has been created within the team has made me constantly ridiculed and told that I don’t want to play for my country. Every two months someone says something against me. Sometimes the bowling coach (Walker Younis) would say that Aamir was cheating on us, sometimes they would tell me that the amount of my work was not satisfactory. These no longer exist. That’s enough. ‘
Aamir has played 36 tests, 61 ODI and 50 T20I for Pakistan. He has taken 259 wickets in international cricket. Took 119 windows in Testing. It has 61 and 59 lots in ODI and T20 respectively. However, Aamir took 6 wickets in the last five ODIs and only 1 wicket in the last five T20s.
