I know many of us don't like him but his bowling was brilliant today and we never know what pressure he created that others used for their benefit but he is an excellent bowler. To me there is no other opening bowler in Pakistan who can equal him in what he brings to the table.
 
Mohd. Amir first CT2017 wicket - Countdown

Two matches down ,one to go . Can GOAT bowler salvage some pride by taking atleast one wicket in this champions trophy? Or is Rohit Sharma right about him??
 
As I said earlier, he is the best "wicket-less" bowler in the world. Of all the bowlers in the world with zero wicket-taking ability, he is comfortably the best.
 
Yeah, was very unlucky today.That ball he bowled to Miller [overturned decision] was like watching something from 10-15 years back. Late reverse swing.
 
He bowled excellent - both new ball and old.

Couldn't ask for more other than wickets but some days he will bowl worse and get them.
 
Amir will come good in time inshaAllah. It's a matter of him finding a threatening length where he can also bowl a defensive line. When bowlers with supreme accuracy find that length, their careers take off. A recent example is Hazlewood who found his against SA in the recent series.
 
It's okay. The team matters in the end. The team bowled very well in the match.
 
The way he bold pin point yorkers in death !!! Cant ask more than that !!! No any other bowler would ball same amount of yorkers like this in world today !!! He pace was up !!!
For wickets he has been extremly unlucky !! First drop catches and now this !!
Will come good IA

I didn't watch all of today's game so missed a lot of his bowling, but seems to me those deliveries are too few and far between. He seems to bowl a lot of ordinary deliveries which takes the pressure off.
 
His figures are misleading, bowled beautifully. Hasan Ali though was wonderful to watch, Amir's Yorker that brought Miller to the ground was the ball of the tournament
 
He's bowling defensively, as long as he's not getting wickets, there's no need to compare him. We need wicket-takers against better teams or Indian-phainta will happen again and again.

He bowled a lot better today. Barely any bad deliveries.
 
Best "His figures don't do justice to his display" bowler right now in World Cricket.
 
A strike bowler who fails to pick up a single wicket is not doing his job.

Hasan Ali has a strong heart, he is willing to risk getting tonked in order to pick up wickets, you see him pitch the ball up to the batsman unlike Amir who sticks to a defensive line which does not yield him wickets.
 
Of course, the golden boy will pick no wickets but he's still the best bowler of the day and has bowled the best wicketless spell ever, no less.
 
Went for 5 runs an over when the team scored just over 4 and no wickets but bowled some peaches surely awesome performance
 
As for Pakistan concern they don't have other's replacement and how can they replace him, he is doing well oh no its not ok.

I feel that the diffrence between Hasan and Amir is that Hasan keeps moving te ball. If it is not in the air it will be of the seam. This is one quality Inn think Amir lacks. Je does swing the new ball and reverse the old one, but he needs more seam movement.
 
Definitely, I haven't seen at least one batsman who's faced Amir comfortably. I think that even the top batsmen like Smith and Kohli seem to play him cautiously which just shows you his class.
