Watch Video: Mohammad Amir Pins Both Babar Azam and Mohammad Haris Lbw in Scintillating Double-wicket Opening Over Burst
Mohammad Amir was at his very best in Karachi Kings’ match against Peshawar Zalmi in Match No.17 of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2023 on Wednesday, March 1 at the Pindi Club Ground in Rawalpindi.
After the Kings opted to bowl first, Amir breathed fire in the very first over. The speedster is known for his deadly in-swingers and he displayed his skills. Amir produced a delivery that swung back sharply into Mohammad Haris, who found himself in all sorts of trouble.
Haris took the DRS, but to no avail and had to go back after bagging a golden duck. Thereafter, Saim Ayub took a single and gave Babar Azam strike, who couldn’t survive the venom spewed by Amir.
Babar defended his first two balls, both around off stump, before unleashing another full, in-swinger. This time Gough gave the batter out on the field and despite a review, Babar had to depart for a three-ball duck to leave his new side 1-2 in the first over.

The pacer, who has not played international cricket since 2020, nabbed his third in his second over, getting the wicket of Saim Ayub, who tried to flick Amir over the leg-side boundary, but only managed to get a top edge. Tayyab Tahir then took a simple catch.
