Misbah stated that if Mohammad Amir went back on his retirement and performed well enough to impress the team management, he could regain his place in the Pakistan cricket team.

Speaking to media before departing for tours of England and the West Indies, Misbah-ul-Haq said:

Mohammad Amir shockingly announced his retirement from all formats of international cricket on December 17, 2020. He stated that he did not get the respect he deserved from the existing team management. As a result, the southpaw decided to stay away from the international arena.

I don’t know why this issue has been created and why Mohammad Amir thinks like that: Misbah-ul-Haq

Mohammad Amir played international cricket for Pakistan under Misbah-ul-Haq’s captaincy. He bowled exceptionally well for Pakistan and helped them win the Champions Trophy in 2017, but injuries had an impact on the pacer’s performance from 2018 onwards. Soon, Amir lost his place in the XI.

Misbah was unable to understand why the 29-year-old fast bowler felt the team management had no respect for him.

While Mohammad Amir has stayed away from international cricket, he has been playing regularly in the T20 leagues. He is currently playing for the Karachi Kings in PSL 2021.

Meanwhile, the Pakistan cricket team will soon leave for the United Kingdom. The Men in Green will play three ODIs and three T20Is against England before visiting the West Indies to play two Tests and five T20Is versus the hosts.
