Mohammad Amir: His fiery spell in pictures

1 / 4

Mohammad Amir, playing his first match against India after six years, bowled a fiery spell that almost snatched an improbable victory for Pakistan in the Asia Cup on Saturday. ▲

He first accounted for Rohit Sharma, who was trapped plumb in front, in the second ball of the Indian innings, for a two-ball duck. Ajinkya Rahane was next... ▲

Ajinkya Rahane was the next to go in the same over, in similar fashion. The Indian batsman was dismissed LBW in his first ball. Two quick wickets in Amir's opening over. ▲

Amir then reduced India to eight for three in the third over after dismissing Suresh Raina, who was caught of a leading edge at mid on by Wahab Riaz. ▲
