Islamabad – April 21 (Online): UK’s county cricket team Kent have signed former Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir for the second half of the Vitality Blast competition, the T20 tournament of England.
“Kent Cricket is delighted to announce the signing of former Pakistan international fast bowler Mohammad Amir for the second half of this year’s Vitality Blast competition,” said a statement issued by Kent.
Kent, which plays under the name of Spitfire in the tournament, said that Amir will be available for at least seven matches. They added that he may feature in their side for more matches if Kent qualifies for the knockout stage of the tournament.
The county team, however, clarified that the left-armer’s arrival to the UK is dependent on the Karachi Kings’ progression in this year’s PSL, and also on the mandatory quarantining period upon arrival into the UK.
Considering all this, Amir could feature for Kent in their game against Essex Eagles on June 25.
