Get ready for some electrifying cricket, folks! Pakistan's very own Mohammad Amir, the 33-year-old left-arm speedster, is set to take the pitch for Essex county side yet again! The club made the announcement on Thursday, and we couldn't be more hyped!
Remember when Amir gave Essex a serious boost during his stint from 2017 to 2019? Well, he's back with a bang, bringing along a massive trove of experience! He's played in 322 T20 matches across the globe and secured an impressive 371 wickets. On an international stage, he's represented Pakistan in 62 T20Is, notching 71 wickets, averaging a stellar 21.94[1][4][5].
Essex Director of Cricket, Chris Silverwood, couldn't hide his excitement about Amir's return. "Amir is a crackerjack! I watched him in action here earlier, and his skillset is unparalleled," Silverwood remarked[4][5]. He continued, "He's gonna be an integral part of our T20 Blast campaign this season. Our squad's gonna be stronger than ever!"
Amir's comeback to Essex comes after he played for Quetta Gladiators in the 2025 Pakistan Super League (PSL)[1]. He'll be available for the group stage of the tournament and, if all goes well and Essex qualifies, he might just stick around for the knockout rounds[1].
"I can't wait to don the Essex jersey once more!" Amir declared excitedly. "Essex feels like home, and the support here is overwhelming. I'm ready to get back in the game!"
So mark your calendars, as Essex is scheduled to face off against the Hampshire Hawks on May 30. Let the games begin!
