Mohammad Amir surprised everyone in the clash between Karachi Kings and Quetta Gladiators during PSL 2025 in Karachi, showing unexpected fireworks. The cricket world is well acquainted with Mohammad Amir’s fiery spells, ripping through stumps and nailing pinpoint yorkers. But Friday night in Karachi offered a twist—a glimpse of Amir the fighter with the bat. With Quetta Gladiators collapsing in their chase against Karachi Kings, Amir walked in at 57/7, a moment when the game looked lost. Yet, instead of merely hanging around, the left-arm pacer swung hard and delivered a surprising counterattack that thrilled the crowd and reignited fading hopes.

Amir’s intent was clear during the 15th over, bowled by Khushdil Shah. On the third delivery, he muscled a boundary to midwicket. Without hesitation, he danced down the track on the next ball and sent it soaring over deep mid-wicket for a maximum. To top it off, he smashed a towering six over long-on on the final ball of the over, turning what looked like a dull finish into an electrifying sequence of power hitting.

In just 16 deliveries, Mohammad Amir lit up the stadium with a fiery 30-run knock, decorated with two boundaries and three sixes. Though the match didn’t swing back in Quetta’s favour, Amir’s resistance stood out. It reminded everyone that whether with ball or bat, Amir brings flair and drama every time he steps onto the field. His late-innings fireworks were a testament to his competitive spirit and refusal to go down quietly.

Not only with bat but Amir was lethal with ball also

Earlier in the evening, Mohammad Amir showcased his bowling brilliance once again, delivering early breakthroughs during the powerplay. He picked up the key wickets of James Vince, who was in fine form with a 70-run knock, and Mohammad Nabi, who added a quick 18. Amir ended with figures of 2/42 in his four-over spell, doing his part to restrict the flow of runs, even as Karachi Kings managed to post a competitive 175/7.

Despite Amir’s efforts with both bat and ball, Quetta Gladiators were never truly in the contest. Karachi Kings dominated the match and sealed a comfortable 56-run win. However, for Quetta fans, the silver lining was Amir’s fighting spirit. His late cameo with the bat and determination on the field offered a glimpse of grit and resilience—qualities that can inspire the team as they look to bounce back in the upcoming fixtures.
