Ramiz Raza has said that there is no room for Amir in the national team after breaking his retirement following the T20 series against New Zealand’s team. However, Rameez Raja’s remarks were criticized by Pakistan’s selector Wahab Riaz. Riaz stated, “Amir’s performance is visible to everyone. We need to assess his performance in the PSL. Amir has performed well.”
Riaz added, “We have enough injury-prone players on the team, and Amir’s performance has been visible to everyone. The PSL is one of the best tournaments where you can prove yourself, especially for T20. If someone is in a playing condition, their performance must be evaluated. Amir is one of them.”
Amir also commented on Rameez’s remarks, stating that Rameez’s language was provocative and harsh, with everyone having their own opinions.
Wahab said, “Rameez Raja’s comments were extremely harsh and provocative. However, everyone has the freedom to express their own opinions.”
Amir expressed gratitude for the opportunity to return to the team, thanking Allah. On Twitter, he said, “In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, I am starting.”
