Some wise men say that a wise enemy is better than a foolish friend, and this seems to be the case in the case of fast bowler Mohammed, who, in the case of Mohal Mahal, who dared to be selected among the 35 players on the tour of New Zealand. The choice was made at the wrong time, the consequences of which, if it is said that they had to suffer, then it would not be wrong to write.
Born in Gujjar Khan, Mohammad Aamir was a talented and excellent bowler, but the spot-fixing scandal of 2010 had gripped him before he could take a step forward in his career and now after the ban, his bowling speed, his There was talk of being ineffective, on the basis of which it was becoming common practice to exclude him from the national team. It would have been appropriate for him to prove himself better and more effective in domestic or league cricket.
On the advice of whom, instead of performing, he tried unsuccessfully to turn the tide by resorting to aggressive rhetoric. According to Mohammad Amir, he was suffering from depression, now with the team management. No more playing.
In this situation, PCB chief executive Wasim Khan contacted the fast bowler on the phone, confirmed the matter and on the other hand, the board issued a statement that the 28-year-old fast bowler should not be considered for future international selection. Yes, this is the wish of Mohammad Amir and the board respects it.
Misbah-ul-Haq not only dropped the left-arm fast bowler for New Zealand, he also dropped Mohammad Amir from the home series of Bangladesh and Zimbabwe, but it was Misbah-ul-Haq who captained for five years in 2016. The fast bowler was trusted in all four Tests against England when the ban was lifted.
While the left-arm fast bowler took just 12 wickets at an average of 42.41 in 4 Tests, Misbah-ul-Haq did not drop Mohammad Amir despite his performance in the West Indies and New Zealand. Khilaya, Mohammad Aamir could take only five wickets in three Tests in the 2016-17 tour of Australia, but he continued to play and was selected for every format.
The PCB Central contract continued to be signed by him, but after the 2019 World Cup, when Ehsan Mani selected PCB chairman Misbah-ul-Haq as the chief selector, Mohammad Amir announced his retirement from Test cricket. Misbah-ul-Haq and bowling coach Waqar Younis have from time to time expressed reservations over Mohammad Aamir's decision. It was true that how much cricket to play, it should be a decision of a player.
However, since in Pakistan cricket such decisions are generally considered by the board or management rather than the player, it was not uncommon for Mohammad Aamir to face reservations as a result of the move.
On the other hand, those who took the wickets of Rohit Sharma, Shekhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli for 16 runs in six overs in the ICC Champions Trophy final at the Oval (London) on June 18, 2017 should also remember that five years Mohammad Aamir, who returned after completing his ban in 2016, has amassed 56 wickets in 22 Tests, 46 in 68 ODIs and 36 wickets in 32 T20I matches.
Mohammad Aamir, who has taken 17 wickets at an average of 21.05 in eight matches of the 2019 World Cup, has played 14 matches in 46 ODIs in the last four years where he could not get a wicket in the match and 30 matches where he was quota. Did not even complete ten overs.
Now Mohammad Aamir says he wants to continue his career in the white ball where in the last eight T20 matches he has managed to take only four wickets with the current management, in seven domestic T20 matches he has taken only six wickets for Northern. His teammate Harris Rauf took 18 wickets in eight matches.
The fact is that in the presence of Naseem Shah, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf, Mohammad Hasnain, Musa Khan and Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Aamir's inclusion in the national team in both white ball formats does not look easy at all.
But it cannot be said that left-arm fast bowler's cricket is over, but still Mohammad Amir should focus on speed and performance to play for the country with moderation and restraint, otherwise the decision will be heard by the PCB.
