According to Pakistan Cricket Board sources, Amir has taken permission from head coach Mickey Arthur to be with his wife. However, team sources claim that Amir may skip the series in Lahore due to a back strain he suffered while playing his last match for Essex.
“He’s been playing non-stop cricket this year and understandably he might not want to take any gamble with his back problem as Pakistan is due to play a full series with Sri Lanka later this month in the UAE,” said a source.
Amir took three wickets against India in the Champions Trophy final to seal Pakistan’s victory at the Oval in June. He has not returned to Pakistan since and was busy playing for Essex in the County championship.
