The Pakistani fast bowler had nothing but words of praise for Rohit Sharma, stating that the Indian cricketer’s opinion about him may have changed now.
Mohammad Amir stated in an interview with Sky Sports, 'It’s not my concern at all and I just concentrate on my performances and what I am doing for my team. If I (am) worried about other people’s opinions of me, that would just cause me stress and that is why I avoid it.'
Amir added, 'Everyone is entitled to their opinion, whether it’s labelling a cricketer world-class or ordinary; it is up to that individual. That was his opinion about me and he is entitled to that opinion. Maybe his opinion about me has now changed. But let’s get one thing clear, I would never call him an ordinary batsman.'

'In fact, I would call him an extraordinary batsman. His record for India is superb and I respect him. His opinions about other cricketers are up to him, but with all due respect I never worry about what other cricketers have to say about me.'
Mohammad Amir bowled an excellent spell in the ICC Champions Trophy final against India and dismissed the top three batsmen - Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli.
Earlier in 2016, during the Asia Cup, Rohit Sharma shared his views on Mohammad Amir saying, 'There is just so much hype around him, I don’t think it is right to give him too much hype after one match. He is good but he needs to prove it over and over again. Now people are comparing him to Wasim Akram and all that. He is just a normal bowler, on that given day if he is good, he is good. It is not as if he turns up and blows everyone away.'
