Mohammad Amir is one bowler who can pose a serious threat to the Indian batting line up. Amir has a strong wrist position and is rated as a great left arm bowler with the ability to swing the ball at a great pace. At the age of 17 only he helped Pakistan to win the World T20 in 2009. After a ban of 5 years, he made a strong come back at Champions Trophy 2017. In the finals, he rocked the Indian innings by claiming the wickets of the top three Indian batsmen in Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli & Shikhar Dhawan.

His dream spell in the match, 3/16 from six overs, enabled Pakistan to defeat India. In World cup 2019, he is at the peak of his form and has already picked 10 wickets in three matches at an average of 12.30 and an economy of 4.73. His 5/30 against Australia in this World Cup is touted as one of the best figures in this ongoing World Cup.

With Amir enjoying some peak form and swinging the ball at a lively pace, the Indian batsmen will undoubtedly need to be vary of the threat Amir brings on to the field.
