mohammad-amir-abuses-a-fan-for-calling-him-fixer

Quetta Gladiators’ pace bowler Mohammad Amir lost his cool and lashed out at a fan after facing a barrage of offensive ‘fixer’ chants during the PSL 9 match against Lahore Qalandars in Karachi.

Despite retiring from international cricket in 2020, Amir remains a polarizing figure due to his involvement in a spot-fixing scandal back in 2010, which led to a seven-year ban from the sport.

The echoes of that tumultuous period reverberated once again during the PSL match, as fans directed “fixer” chants towards Amir, sparking an emotional reaction from the seasoned cricketer.

In a viral video capturing the incident, Amir is seen walking off the field with his teammates when he engages in a confrontation with a fan.

Initially choosing to ignore the offensive remarks, Amir ultimately confronts the individual hurling accusations, and expressing his dismay at the derogatory chants.

“Is this what you learn at your home?” Amir retorted, visibly perturbed by the disrespectful taunts echoing from the stands.

The episode serves as a stark reminder of the stain on Amir’s career stemming from the 2010 scandal, which abruptly halted the promising trajectory of his young cricketing journey.

Alongside fellow players Mohammad Asif and Salman Butt, Amir faced severe repercussions, including bans and jail sentences, for his involvement in the controversy.

Despite the tumultuous past, Amir’s return to international cricket in 2016 showcased his resilience and talent on the field.

He played a pivotal role in Pakistan’s triumph at the ICC Champions Trophy in 2017, earning accolades for his bowling prowess and match-winning performances.

In the current PSL season, Amir has garnered praise for his impeccable death bowling and economical spells, contributing significantly to his team’s success.
