“No one could guarantee that. To err is human as I am not in a position to guarantee anything like that. We can only try and that is in my power,” Amir said.

Shaheen and Naseem
“With Shaheen and Naseem, I think we can form one of the best fast-bowling combination. Pakistan is lucky to have such a pace attack going into the World Cup. The onus is now on us to perform to the satisfaction of Pakistani fans. Hopefully, the best efforts will be made to win the Cup. My effort will be to contribute in the best possible way to see Pakistan bowling to its best ability.”
