⚡ Mohammad Amir Breaks Silence! “My Decision Is Final” — The Truth Behind His Rumoured Comeback
The cricket world was buzzing once again — could Mohammad Amir be making a sensational return to international cricket?
As whispers turned into headlines and fans began to dream of his fiery comebacks, the left-arm pacer finally decided to break his silence.
🎙️ The Truth Revealed
In a candid video message, the former Pakistan speedster put all speculation to rest.
“For the past two or three days, I’ve been hearing that Mohammad Amir is coming back and taking back his retirement,” he said firmly.
“No such discussion has taken place with me, and I have no such plans. The decision I made regarding my retirement is final.”
His message hit like a thunderbolt — a direct blow to the rumours that had reignited hope among fans longing to see him back in the green jersey.
🏏 “Pakistan Cricket Must Move Forward”
While acknowledging his supporters’ emotions, Amir reminded everyone that Pakistan cricket is bigger than any individual.
“My fans want me to return, but Pakistan cricket needs to move forward,” he stated.
It’s a sentiment that reflects both maturity and a clear understanding of where the national team must head — towards nurturing the next generation.
📅 A Journey of Retirements and Returns
Amir’s relationship with retirement has been anything but simple.
He first walked away from international cricket in December 2020, citing mental strain and disagreements with management.
Then, in early 2024, he stunned everyone by returning for the T20 World Cup, only to announce his retirement once again on December 14, 2024, after the tournament ended — declaring it was time for younger players to take over.
🌱 “Youngsters Need Consistent Chances”
Reiterating his support for the youth, Amir said:
“There are young players in the team. If they play consistently, in two or three years Pakistan will have a strong side. We played the Asia Cup final — now I hope we play and win the World Cup final too.”
His words carried both hope and challenge — an acknowledgment that Pakistan’s future lies in the hands of its emerging stars.
🕵️ Rumours in the Air: New Chief Selector on the Horizon?
As Amir’s statement made waves, another development shook the cricketing circles — whispers of Sarfaraz Ahmed replacing Aqib Javed as Chief Selector.
Amir, when asked about it, responded positively:
“Even if Sarfaraz isn’t appointed Chief Selector but joins as a selector, it’s a good move. He’s played with the current players, which gives him an edge.”
🤝 Respect for Sarfaraz and a Call for Experience
The 33-year-old pacer praised Sarfaraz Ahmed’s honesty and commitment, stressing the need to involve experienced cricketers in Pakistan’s cricketing structure.
“Sarfaraz is an honest and sincere person. Pakistan cricket can benefit from people like him,” Amir noted.
“We’ve seen many come and go, leaving the team in disarray — what we need now is capable, experienced leadership.”
💡 “Use Legends Wisely”
Amir didn’t stop there. He urged PCB to include former stars like Shoaib Akhtar, Umar Gul, Sohail Tanvir, and Younis Khan in advisory or coaching roles.
> “They all have deep knowledge of white-ball cricket,” he said. “Younis Khan especially is not a ‘yes-man.’ Pakistan cricket needs strong, independent thinkers.”
🔚 The Final Word
With this statement, Mohammad Amir has once again proven that while he may have stepped away from the pitch, his voice and vision still echo in Pakistan cricket.
His retirement may be final, but his influence? Far from over.
