Quetta Gladiators’ veteran pacer Mohammad Amir once again showcased his class by dismissing Peshawar Zalmi’s skipper Babar Azam during a thrilling PSL 10 encounter at Gaddafi Stadium. Amir, who had earlier sent Babar back for a duck in their first meeting, trapped him leg-before with a sharp in-swinger in just the third over, setting the tone for Gladiators’ dominance.
Amir’s animated celebration, marked by a lively gesture toward the Gladiators’ dugout, electrified the atmosphere even more. His fiery spirit was not just a display of aggression but a nod to the entertaining rivalries that keep the T20 format alive and vibrant for the fans.

Speaking after the match, Amir emphasized the value of such rivalries, stating that competition on the field and excitement on social media add to the PSL’s charm. He acknowledged Babar’s stature as a world-class player while shedding light on his strategy to exploit the batter’s expectation of an outswinger by surprising him with a well-directed inswinger.
Amir’s crucial strike, supported by Faheem Ashraf’s incredible five-wicket haul, propelled the Gladiators to a commanding 64-run victory, strengthening their campaign for a playoff berth. With their bowlers in prime form, Quetta’s march toward the business end of the tournament looks more promising than ever.
