Mohammad Amir, the former Pakistani fast bowler, has expressed his desire to participate in the Indian Premier League (IPL) despite the ban on Pakistani players.
Reports suggest he aims to join the IPL by 2026 and is exploring options to make this happen. One potential route is through acquiring British citizenship, as his wife is a UK citizen. By becoming a UK national, Amir could potentially qualify as an overseas player in the IPL, circumventing the ban on Pakistani cricketers.
His chances hinge on successfully obtaining British citizenship before IPL 2026 begins.
