It is pertinent to mention that a section of Pakistan Cricket Team fans were calling for the duo’s selection in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 squad on the back of their impressive performances in the recently concluded Caribbean Premier League 2023.

Imad Wasim was the third-highest run-getter in the tournament with 313 runs from 11 matches with two half-centuries. The left-arm spinner bagged 14 wickets as well.

Mohammad Amir, on the other hand, finished as the third-highest wicket-taker with 16 scalps.

“[Mohammad] Amir has been a great cricketer,” he said. “He has taken retirement. If he wants to play for Pakistan, he will have to play first-class cricket and perform there. If he performs then he will definitely be considered. The selection door is not closed for any player.”

He added, “The same is the case for Sarfaraz Ahmed, Shan Masood and Imad Wasim.”
