Mohammad Amir announces retirement from Test Cricket

[Pollack]

Right decision. He doesn't seem to have it in him to succeed in tests.

[Mirpur express]

He was a conditions based bowler. His pace was around 128-133 in Tests. He could have been useful in away conditions by tits his decision. In UAE very rarely will you see a bowler take bags of wickets anyways.

It's his life and he had served his time. He owes the board and the public nothing now because he became even with the scores a long time ago.

 

If he doesn't want to do something he is free to so long as he doesn't break the law, which he isn't of course.

He at  least played more tests than Malinga who retired in 2010 at 26.

Wow, didn't know Malinga's retirement was so long ago! The ICC should make a rule that if a cricketer retires from one format, he should retire from other formats within 6-12 months. Picking and choosing is unfair and to do it for close to a decade is nuts! Players should be ready to play in whatever format they are needed in and shouldn't be allowed to permanently opt out from the less lucrative format while enjoying riches from the easier formats.

When he was first caught for match fixing like of Wasim jumped to his defense. Amir is from a village, he is so innocent, poor guy has been pressurized to comply etc etc . Well its clear he wasnt that innocent, he wanted money back then he wants it now.
