Mohammad Amir and Danish Kaneria
The heated exchange of words between former Pakistan spinner Danish Kaneria and ace pacer Mohammad Amir does not seem to be stopping as the former once again criticized the latter. This time it was for comments that Amir had made on Indian opener Rohit Sharma where he had stated that he found bowling to him fairly easy as compared to doing so against Indian skipper Virat Kohli.
“I find it easy to bowl to him (Rohit). I feel that I can get him out both ways. He struggles against the in-swinger from a left-armer and as well as against the ball that goes away early on,” Amir had said. Now Kaneria has replied to the same stating that Amir must choose his words wisely since he is talking about a reputed batsman who has broken a plethora of records.
Danish Kaneria says Mohammad Amir’s statements hold no significance
Danish Kaneria took to his YouTube channel today to respond to Amir’s statements where he said, “Mohammad Amir, you want to remain in headlines, no doubt. You have been a wonderful bowler for Pakistan. When you debuted, you made quite a name for yourself. You used to make the ball swing both ways with the new ball. You’ve troubled many batsmen and there’s nothing to take away from it. You troubled India in the Champions Trophy final and gave their batsmen a tough time in the Asia Cup as well.”
Kaneria then went on to criticize Amir for the statements and their significance saying, “But such statements are made when players are about to face each other in an upcoming or an ongoing series. Neither are we going to have an India vs Pakistan series, nor are you going to bowl to Rohit Sharma. You’ve said something out of the blue, similar to what Abdul Razzaq had said about Jasprit Bumrah. So, it is fine if you want to be in the limelight by making such statements. I understand that a bowler likes to say such things, express himself by saying stuff like ‘he’s my bunny, I like to get him out’.”
Danish Kaneria’s reply to Mohammad Amir has now gone viral and it remains to be seen if the latter would come up with a response to the same.
