The 6 ft 2 inch-long Pakistani left-arm fast bowler came to spotlight after the spot-fixing scandal in 2010. Amir was implicated in allegations of spot-fixing and was handed a five-year ban for bowling two deliberate no-balls.

He had to go to England for his trial, where he hired a lawyer named Nargis, a Bengali-British who was taking care of Amir's case in the UK. As fate had it, the duo fell in love with each her and soon after Amir’s release from the prison, they both got married. By far this remains of the most intriguing love stories of all!
