During an interview with local media, Mohammad Amir requested fans to be respectful towards cricketers:
"Not only Imad, but these jeers have also been directed at Imam. Shan has faced similar jeers. Azam has also faced this. This behaviour needs to stop. When you come to watch cricket, watch cricket, and enjoy it.
"My fans are also passionate, and conflicts arise. But I urge the fans once again, let cricket remain cricket. Regardless of which star you support, just come to the ground and cheer for them. My fans come to support us, as we have all served Pakistan. He [Babar] is serving Pakistan too. Ultimately, we are all Pakistanis, right? Come to the ground, support him, show your emotions whether he wins or loses."
Regarding abuse directed at other players by Babar fans:
"I'm sure it doesn't even cross his [Babar's] mind. If you ask him, he will also say that this is wrong, it shouldn't happen. At the end of the day, it's about respect. We don't think we have personally attacked him and are delighted are about it!! No, we always talk about cricket and that's it."
Do you agree with Mohammad Amir?
