Former Pakistan pacer, Mohammad Amir’s wife, Narjis Amir, has once again questioned the double standards related to criticism of her husband during ongoing season of Pakistan Super League

Amir’s wife has compared the aggression and actions of Amir and Shaheen Afridi, while quoting a tweet on Saturday.

If someone is trying to put you down, it only means you are above them. And he shall always be above them (HASID) InshAllah,” Narjis wrote.

Amir also retweeted his wife’s aforementioned tweet.

Shaheen wasn’t impressed with Amir’s behaviour in the game between Karachi Kings and Peshawar Zalmi earlier this season, when Amir threw ball towards Babar Azam in frustration.

You talked about Karachi Kings and Peshawar Zalmi. I think there should be competition, but it should be between bat and ball. Sledging looks really bad as families are watching our games,” Shaheen said.

This is not the first time, Narjis has indirectly taken at dig at Lahore Qalandars captain, Shaheen Afridi, and Pakistan fans this season.

Earlier in February, Amir’s wife retweeted a picture, which showed both Amir and Shaheen celebrating a wicket, and wrote, 'This' as caption, hence endorsing the picture.

The text written on Shaheen's picture read 'If you celebrate, it is aggression', while the text written on Amir's picture read 'If I celebrate, it is called attitude'.
