Mohammad Amir stands with the Pakistan team even after the failure against India, he said:
"I felt compelled to make this video because of the intense and, frankly, bizarre reaction on social media following the recent Pakistan vs. India cricket match. It feels like some people believe the world has ended.
It’s just a game and in cricket winning and losing are both part of it. What's happening on social media is a vicious attack on our players, especially the younger ones, as if they’ve committed some unforgivable sin. I see people on TV and online acting as if these players aren’t even our own, as if they’ve come from another planet.
This isn’t the right way to behave. I understand that many people have YouTube channels and TV shows to run, and they have the right to express their opinions. However, that opinion should be based on fair criticism and respect, not on personal agendas or wild, baseless attacks. I see people holding up flags and demanding specific players be removed, as if one bad match is the end of their career.
Let's remember, these are the same players who are being compared to legends who have had long careers and have also experienced failures, including losses to teams like Afghanistan and Ireland. You’re holding these young players to an impossible standard after a single match. It’s not fair to them.
While it’s fine to suggest improvements, like bringing in a player like Haris Rauf into the playing XI, the conversation should be about solutions, not about tearing players down. We should offer suggestions on how to improve the team's performance, not just wave flags and spew negativity. These are our players, and they are the future of Pakistan cricket.
The tournament is still ongoing and maybe we will play again against India so instead of demoralizing them, we should be supporting them, guiding them, and pointing out their mistakes constructively. The people who are so quick to praise a player when they perform will be the same ones who vilify them after a poor performance. This is the nature of cricket, and it’s important to remember that a player who fails today might be the match-winner tomorrow.
So plz do not run your personal agendas give them fair constructive opinions, what of India and Pakistan again plays in this tournament again and Pakistan win this time so how would u praise them after such criticism?
I’ve been involved in cricket for a long time, and it teaches you that there are both good times and bad. Right now, our team needs our patience and support. whatever you want to suggest do it after the tournament ends it is your right to have an opinion on who should be in the team and who should be out, but that opinion must be shared with respect but not with personal agendas.
I see videos and comments online that make no sense, fueled by personal grudges. We have to be better than that. Everyone, including these young players, deserves a chance. Give them time—a year or two. If they don’t perform, they will be replaced. But right now, they need our support.
Good luck to the Pakistan team. The tournament isn't over yet, and I hope they will perform well and win."
