Pakistan on Friday named Mohammad Amir in its squads
for three Twenty20 internationals and three one-day
internationals in New Zealand next month, four months
after the left-arm paceman completed his five-year ban for
spot-fixing.
Chief selector Haroon Rasheed said Amir's inclusion was
contingent on the fast bowler -- who has a criminal record
for his role in arranging no-balls to order in exchange for
money -- receiving a visa from the New Zealand
government.
Squad for ODIs: Azhar Ali (capt), Mohammad Hafeez,
Ahmed Shehzad, Shoaib Malik, Asad Shafiq, Babar Azam,
Sarfraz Ahmed, Sohaib Maqsood, Zafar Gohar, Anwar Ali,
Imad Wasim, Wahab Raiz, Mohammad Amir, Rahat Ali,
Mohammad Irfan, Mohammad Rizwan.
Squad for T20s: Shahid Afridi (capt), Mohammad Hafeez,
Ahmed Shehzad, Shoaib Malik, Sohaib Maqsood, Umar
Akmal, Imad Wasim, Iftikhar Ahmed, Anwar Ali, Aamer
Yamin, Sarfraz Ahmed, Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Amir,
Umar Gul, Mohammad Rizwan, Saad Nasim.
