Mohammad Amir on the Biggest T20 Challenge for Bowlers: Out-Thinking the Batters

Veteran Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir is gearing up for the challenge of out-thinking batters in Twenty20 cricket as he makes his comeback to the international scene after a long hiatus.

Amir, who had announced his retirement from international cricket in 2020 before reversing his decision earlier this year, believes that bowlers need to be smart and strategic in the fast-paced T20 format.

“The greatest challenge in T20 cricket for bowlers is to out-think the batters,” he said in a recent interview on a YouTube channel. “You have to be one step ahead and anticipate their moves.”

The 32-year-old, who served a ban for spot-fixing in 2010, has faced his fair share of challenges and setbacks in his career. However, he is now focused on moving forward and making the most of his second chance in the game.

Amir has been working hard to ensure he is in peak physical condition for the upcoming World Cup, hiring a personal trainer to keep him fit and ready for the demands of modern-day cricket.

Having already tasted success on the international stage with two ICC titles under his belt, including the 2009 World T20 and the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy, Amir is determined to make a strong comeback and contribute to Pakistan’s success in the upcoming tournaments.

With his experience and skill, Amir remains a key player for Pakistan and will be looking to make a mark in the T20 format with his sharp bowling and strategic thinking on the field.
