#4 Amir‘s action-packed outing
It has been rumored that coaches in Pakistan often advise emerging fast bowlers to not rely on their error-prone fielders and instead target the stumps. After seeing his team-mates drop numerous catches during the England tour, Mohammad Amir’s misfortune continued in this series as well.
Knowing that his side needed early wickets to make a fist of the meager fourth-innings target, he squared up opener Leon Johnson twice only to see both those simple catches go begging behind the stumps.
Interestingly, Amir was kept busy right throughout the contest. The left-hander got run out in an extremely comical fashion when Roston Chase pulled off an astonishing save at the boundary. This after he himself grabbed a spectacular catch to finally get off the mark in the fielding department.
