Aamer Yamin vows to make comeback in Pakistan team

Pakistan all-rounder Aamer Yamin has vowed to make a comeback in Pakistan team as he focuses on performing in domestic cricket.

Talking to PakPassion, he said that Pakistan is blessed with some excellent talents such as Faheem Ashraf, who was recently declared as the Pakistan Cricket Board’s emerging player of the year, and Shadab Khan who has performed brilliantly for Pakistan.

“As far as my situation is concerned, I feel that one can only prove himself and also improve as a player if given chances to play at the highest level. I can assure everyone that I have always endeavoured to make the most of any chance given to me,” the 28 year-old said.

It doesn’t matter if it is a high-profile domestic game or if it’s a local club, I put in my best efforts to perform to the best of my abilities and will prove to the world that I am an outstanding all-rounder, he added.

Yamin is regarded as a promising all-round option for Pakistan. He has so far played six international games since his debut against Zimbabwe in 2015. Yamin has represented Peshawar Zalmi and Lahore Qalandars the Pakistan Super League (PSL).

Speaking about his age, Yamin said, “I am a firm believer that if you are fit enough, you can play until the age of 40 as well, as has been demonstrated by Misbah-ul-Haq and Younis Khan.”

“I do realise that a fast-bowler has a relatively shorter shelf-life and it’s rare to see bowlers play past the age of 35. I am not too bothered about my age but instead I am focusing on gaining as much experience as I can which could help me play for Pakistan again,” he added.
