Amir’s wife Narjis is a UK citizen and the left-arm pacer is hoping to get an UK passport, which will open IPL doors.
“Next year tak meri opportunity ban rahi agar hua to kyu nahi (By next year, I will have the opportunity to play in the IPL and if given the chance then why not). I will play in the IPL,” Mohammad Amir said on show “Haarna Mana Hai.”
Tabish Hashmi, the show’s host asked Amir, ““What will be his reactions when he will be criticise in Pakistan for playing in the IPL?"
The 32-year-old, who has retired from international cricket, said that despite Pakistan cricketers being banned from the lucrative league, there have been instances where former commentators and coaches from the country were involved.
However, Amir did not take any names.
Amir played 36 Tests, 61 ODIs and 62 T20Is, picking up 118, 81 and 71 wickets, respectively.
