Cricketer Mohammad Amir announced that he is available to represent Pakistan in the upcoming 2024 T20 World Cup after reversing his decision to retire from international cricket. Amir, who retired in 2020 due to issues with the then-management of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), has had positive discussions with the PCB and is now ready to play for his country once again. In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Amir stated that he still dreams of playing for Pakistan and has put his country ahead of personal decisions.
He said, “I want to do this for my country as it comes before my personal decisions. Donning the green jersey and serving my country has always been, and will continue to be my greatest aspirations.” Amir’s excellent performance in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season nine campaign, where he showcased his skills as an experienced pacer, especially with the new ball and in death overs,
has made his return to international cricket a hot topic among fans as the 2024 T20 World Cup approaches. Despite initially stating that he had no intentions of returning to international cricket, Amir has reversed his decision and is likely to be selected for the upcoming tournament. Amir has previously represented Pakistan in 36 Tests, 61 ODIs, and 50 T20Is and was part of the Pakistan team that won the ICC T20 World Cup 2009 and ICC Champions Trophy 2017. His Champions Trophy 2017 final spell, where he dismantled India’s top-order consisting of Rohit Sharma, Shikar Dhawan, and Virat Kohli, earned Pakistan their maiden title in an eight-team tournament
