Former Pakistani fast-bowler Shoaib Akhtar has expressed his desire to take young Mohammad Amir under his wing and guide him back to the national team.
According to local media report Akhtar said, “Everyone knows how talented Amir was when he played cricket, so on his return he will have to work hard to become the same bowler”.
Earlier, Akhtar said that it’s their right to get a second chance and he is also looking to buy a team in the upcoming Pakistan Super League (PSL) Twenty20 tournament that will be staged in Qatar in February and wanted to recruit Amir in that.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) lifted all sanctions on the trio earlier this month. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has devised a rehabilitation programme for all three players, with Amir already playing second tier cricket since April this year under a special dispensation by the ICC.
