Pacer Mohammad Amir mocks Skipper Babar Azam in public
Shares
Pakistani captain Babar Azam and former Test fast bowler Mohammad Amir's relationship has been strained for quite some time. Even during the previous Pakistan Super League (PSL), there was a controversy over Amir's statement. Now, Mohammad Amir has taken aim at Babar and his number one position in the national captaincy and One Day International rankings.
During a TV program, Mohammad Amir stated that ICC rankings change every week. When you play 40 matches out of 40 yourself, you'll score 25 runs in one match, 50 in another, and even 70 runs on 60 balls in some matches. This way, you can reach the top in rankings.
Why don't players like Jos Buttler, D. Cock, and David Miller top the rankings? The reason is that they don't play matches against B and C level teams; they relax during series against smaller teams. That's why they don't reach the top three. If you play 45 out of 40 matches, then you'll definitely move up in the rankings.
Please note that Babar Azam is currently the only player in the world to be in the top 5 of all formats. He has been number one in One Day Internationals for the past two and a half years. He is ranked third in T20 rankings and fourth in Tests
