"If fines are the solution, apply them to everyone - from selectors to the administration. Players weren't forced at gunpoint. Hold selectors accountable for wrong combinations. Double the fine for them. Stop scapegoating players. This isn't the real solution. Why do players have to suffer all the time?" Amir stated on a talk show.
"If you can't pick the right combination, the ones who selected the squad and chalked out the plans must answer. Will you fine Fakhar Zaman as well, who played just two games? What about Sahibzada Farhan?" he further added
"Fines aren't the solution. I've said it from day one - invest in domestic cricket. That is where you will find quality players. If you are angry with someone, don't fine them; drop them and tell them to perform consistently for two years in domestic cricket. The biggest punishment for a player is being left out of the team," Amir further remarked
Pakistan's early exit from the tournament has sparked outrage among fans. What started as a disappointment has now blown into a full controversy with the reports of PCB imposing fine of their players.
A Pakistan report mentioned that the PCB has decided not to impose a fine on Fakhar Zaman, Usman Tariq, Salman Mirza, and Sahibzada Farhan.
