Yasir Shah 4 wickets against West Indies

Mohammad Amir has taken five wickets in the first innings of the opening test against West Indies. This is the first five wicket haul for Amir in test cricket since his comeback. Amir has not taken this much number of wickets in a single innings despite playing over 10 test matches.

He was not been able to hit the full throttle. His bowling was lame and there is no doubt about it. The fans were putting questions on his performances and as a result the desperation level was increasing. Amir had to come up with something and now he has done that.

Mohammad Amir five wickets have given Pakistan a very stable and wanting sort of a start to this test match. But rain is a factor which might put hurdles in the path of Pakistan team in their journey towards winning this opening test.

The second day see just a few overs play and then the rain came down and no cricket remained possible after that. Amir picked up 2 wickets in those limited number of overs bowled by Pakistan. He took three wickets on day one and then two on day two.

He started with Hetmyer, getting him bowled out on an inswinger. After bowling a series of out swingers to the left hander Amir then brought one back in. The batsman was not ready for this one and got late. The ball went in and took the stumps out.

After this Hope fell. This was another massive in swinger and Hope was no way near to the line of the ball. He too perished after Amir knocked his stumps out. After this Amir took out Powell and this was a sharp catch from Younis Khan in the slips. These three wickets fell for Amir on day one and then on day two he bagged the wickets of Bishoo and Joseph. This was an excellent spell of bowling from Amir.

Great catches by Wahab Riaz and Babar Azam against Australia

After Pakistan's woeful fielding in the fourth ODI I in Sydney, they wanted to start well in Adelaide. Alas, the first ball of the match, David Warner r edged an out swinger from Mohammad Amir and at second slip, Azhar Ali hurled out his left hand but couldn't make the ball stick. It was a tough chance, but a costly one. Warner went on to make 179, his career-best knock in ODIs. Warner was dropped again, though by this time he already had 130. And this time it was a sitter. Warner skied the ball off Hasan Ali and Amir, running in from long-on, positioned himself perfectly under the ball, only to have it spill straight through his fingers. It was less costly than Azhar's miss, although Warner still added almost 50 more runs from that point. Straight after Amir's blunder, the TV cameras cut to Pakistan coach Mickey Arthur and fielding mentor Steve Rixon. Heads were in hands, faces were long, and no words were being spoken. The fifth and final ODI of the series between Pa...
