Peshawar Zalmi speedster Wahab Riaz said the Pakistan pace quartet of Naseem Shah, Hasan Ali, Shahnawaz Dahani and Mohammad Wasim Jnr may have new competition in the form of left-arm seamer Mohammad Amir.

Wahab believes that Amir could be on his way back to playing international cricket again after announcing his retirement in December 2020.

With a few spots available in Pakistan’s pace attack, the 37-year-old pointed out that if Amir does decide to return, the competition will heat up.
