Sandeep99 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 This guy is an elite in Pakistani setup. He is like Kohli/Dhoni. He will pick and choose what to play and what not to play. They have to deal with it. Link to comment

Hes not like lot of other cricketers who have done this . Amir was brought back inpite of him being involved in spot fixing and he pays them back by retiring from the toughest format . Very selfish .

DGBOSS Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Dont think amir is that good when ball dosent swing . His recent records in UAE suggest that. If you cannot be good without swing in test cricket then you have no place in the team. He has no pace either. nevada 1 Link to comment
nevada Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 He floated the idea more than a year ago, so this is not a surprise. But what a disappointment this must be for the Pakistan cricket set up whoch backed him despite all the backlash and the fans who hoped he would be the second coming of Wasim Akram! Link to comment

But I would feel betrayed , lets say some one like Bumrah is given a chance to redeem himslef (to start with I would be against fixer being give a second chance ) and he decides only to play LOIs .

Rightarmfast Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 The guy just doesnt want to work hard. One would have thought he would concentrate more on test than ODI's, but the bugger wants more money and the easy way out. Pakistan needs to look beyond him.

The dude complains about things like a little women. No other bowler have I seen from Pakistan cricket do that. Got sick of hearing it. I failed to see why people kept saying this dude is a great bowler? Before the spot fixing incident maybe. Since his return to international cricket it was all me me me. Just shut up and bowl. Stop making excuses! He’s got some special treatment when he did not deserve it. Where as bowlers who worked hard for there country who did not do what he did got shafted aside for him. All cause he has talent. I say good riddance he's out of Test cricket. At least we won’t hear the consistent moaning. Forever Indian, Rightarmfast and Vijy 1 2 Link to comment
Shaz1 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 My god this is the exact excuses I mean. This dude is not even 30 yet and he is talking like this. Rightarmfast 1 Link to comment

It was "leaked" and then denied. The advent of the English league only confirmed the decision. No way he's "27" years old to begin with, and now has a limited number of years to maximize his earnings as a player. Nothing wrong with that I guess. At least the infantile greenbro obsession of overhyping him comes to an end, in test cricket. Vk1 and nevada 2 Link to comment
Bigg Brother Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Probably tired of Pakistani slip fielders..He was denied almost 7-10 wickets in his come back series against England in 2016, Thanks to their fielders. Iconoclast 1 Link to comment

Nikhil_cric Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 He was bowling at 120-132 kph in the SA series. Skill and bowling intelligence can only take you so far. Will be cannon fodder on true wickets. Good decision. He's not strong and conditioned well enough to sustain pace in tests. adi B and nevada 2 Link to comment

What if he feels like he doesn't belong to tests? I can name Yuvraj Singh and Michael Bevan as classic examples who wanted to be established test cricketers but never could achieve this dream due to lack of aptitude required for the format. Same can probably be said for Cheteshwar Pujara in ODIs. Link to comment

Same can probably be said for Cheteshwar Pujara in ODIs. Rather he is made or not he showed potential of being a good Test bowler early on in his career. If you notice since his return he just never looked that hungry. Instead of trying to work harder without complaining he goes off complaining about how much cricket he has played over the years. I doubt Bevan or Yuvraj made excuses like these. When you get the opportunities he did you should feel proud and work harder to prove why you belong there instead of feeling your bigger than the game. Lets face it this is a selfish decision nothing more. He knows he will get more money off playing for twenty20 Leagues instead of boring Test cricket that is there to only hamper his career. nevada and kosingh 2 Link to comment
