Amir Rolls Back the Years in T10 League, Guides Strikers to Victory

In a stunning T10 League showdown, former Pakistan pace sensation Mohammad Amir delivered a vintage performance, claiming four wickets for just seven runs against Chennai Braves. This incredible spell proved decisive as it limited Chennai to 75 for 9, setting the stage for New York Strikers’ five-wicket triumph in the 23rd match at the Zayed Cricket Stadium.

Despite a shaky start, with the Strikers losing three wickets for 30 runs, Asif Ali’s unbeaten 23 ensured their victory with nine balls to spare. Sam Cook and Junaid Siddique’s efforts with two wickets each for Chennai went unrewarded.
