Chief Selector Haroon Rasheed has cleared rumors about bowler Muhammad Amir’s selection in the team.

“We have mentioned that from day one that selection doors are open for every player who performs and is fit. The same goes for Muhammad Amir but we did not contact anyone,” he said.

The Chief Selector also stated that if a player has been dropped, it does not mean that he will not be considered for future series.

“Azam Khan did not perform well in the series against Afghanistan, but mistakes happen. However, the door is open for his return if he works on his issues and improves. Many cricketers in the world have been dropped and made a comeback and played cricket for a long time,” Rasheed pointed out.

Mentioning that the team already has Mohammad Rizwan and Mohammad Haris as wicket-keeper batters, and Azam Khan waiting in the wings, Rasheed said that young cricketers like Amir Jamal can also make it to the national team by performing well.
