Mohammad Amir Announces Retirement From International Cricket
“After careful consideration, I have taken the difficult decision to retire from international cricket. These decisions are never easy but are inevitable. I feel this is the right time for the next generation to take the baton and elevate Pakistan Cricket to new heights! Representing my country has been and always will be the greatest honour of my life. I would sincerely like to thank the PCB, my family and friends and, above all, my fans for their continuous love & support,” Amit posted on his social media handles.
Amir, who debuted in 2009 as a prodigious teenager, retires with 271 international wickets to his name across all formats—119 in Tests, 81 in ODIs, and 71 in T20Is. He was instrumental in Pakistan’s victorious 2009 T20 World Cup campaign and delivered many memorable performances, including his match-winning spell in the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy final against India.
