Mohammad Amir Confirms End of Pakistan Career After Acquiring British Citizenship
Mohammad Amir has confirmed that his cricket career with Pakistan is over after acquiring British citizenship, which allows him to play as a local player in England's domestic competitions. He explained that signing as a local player in tournaments like the County Championship and The Hundred requires a commitment not to represent another country in that status. Amir, who retired in 2024, obtained British citizenship through his wife and has ruled out any return to Pakistan cricket.
