The former Pakistan pacer is settled in the United Kingdom since 2020.
Notably, Amir retired from international cricket in 2020 at the age of 28, citing that he was “being mentally tortured” by the team management. Since then, the left-arm pacer is playing T20 leagues around the world.
Amir is settled in the United Kingdom since 2020 and spoke about his future in an interview with ARY news.
“First, I will not play for England. I have played for Pakistan. Second (talking of IPL), there is one more year to go,” Amir stated.
“What will be the scenario at that time….I always say that I go step by step. We don’t know what will happen tomorrow and I start thinking about playing IPL in 2024,” he added.
The 31-year-old has played 36 Tests, 61 ODIs and 50 T20Is for Pakistan. His last international appearance was against England in a T20I match at Old Trafford in August 2020.
While BCCI has barred the Pakistani cricketers from participating in the IPL, Amir will become eligible to feature in the cash-rich tournament once he gets his British passport.
“I don’t know where I will be a year later. No one knows about the future,” Amir said.
“When I get my passport …whatever the best opportunity will be and what I will get…I will avail it,” he further remarked.
