Veteran Pakistani fast bowler Mohammad Amir has secured a significant career milestone by surpassing 400 wickets in T20 cricket. The accomplished pacer joined this exclusive group during a match in the ongoing Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2025 season.
The landmark moment arrived when the 33-year-old dismissed batsman Fabian Allen to claim his 400th scalp in the shortest format of the game. This achievement is a testament to Amir’s longevity and skill, having featured in 343 T20 matches while maintaining a bowling average of 22.54 and an economical rate of 7.33 runs per over.
Amir, who announced his retirement from international cricket following Pakistan’s campaign in the 2024 T20 World Cup, continues to be an active and impactful player in global franchise leagues. His performance demonstrates that he remains a potent force with the ball despite stepping away from the national team.
With this feat, Amir has solidified his place among Pakistan’s bowling greats. He is now only the second Pakistani to have taken over 400 T20 wickets, following former teammate Wahab Riaz, who currently holds 413 wickets and sits just ahead of him on the all-time list.
