"Felt Sidelined And Ignored After the T20 World Cup": Mohammad Amir

Ex fast bowler Mohammad Amir says he felt sidelined and ignored by the "Pakistan cricket setup" after the 2024 T20 World Cup and cited lack of communication as the reason behind his retirement late last year. Amir and Imad Wasim had come out of their retirements to play in last year's T20 World Cup in which Pakistan's flop show saw the winners of the 2009 edition failing to make the Super Eight stage. Both these players announced their retirements on consecutive days last December. Amir said on a TV channel, "I felt sidelined and ignored by the Pakistan cricket setup after the T20 World Cup. After the T20 World Cup ended, no one even talked to me. No one told me if I was part of the future plans." "A wise person understands the signs - if you're not in the plans, then you have to think about yourself. That's exactly what I did. I've made up my mind now - thank you very much, international cricket," he said.
