Muhammad Amir showed his class to the Aussies

During this year when Pakistan made a visit to the Australian lands Shane Watson was considered the player of the year. He was performing consistently both with bat and ball.

In this series however Amir came to his backyard as a nightmare for the right handed Australian. Amir targeted him throughout the series and took his wicket many times.

This clip is of his wicket taken by Amir in one of the ODI played between his side and Pakistan. Amir made it hard for Watson to score and ultimately took his wicket with an absolute gaffer.

It was the second over of the first spell from Amir. The first ball he bowled was a fast in swinger. Watson first went to his front foot and then as the ball swung laid back and defended it with his bat hardly at the last minute.

The ball first hit on his glove and then to the bat and rolled over to the slip area. The next ball was the one who took Watson’s wicket.

It was again a fast in swinger that generated some bounce after hitting the deck. Watson miscalculated the bounce and fell short of it. The bounced a bit high then he anticipated and in result hit right at the top of the handle of his bat.

The ball flew to Ajmal at mid on who took a dolly and Watson was seen stranded on the pitch with an amused face but then walked away after seeing the ball caught by Ajmal.

Then arrived Ponting to the crease and Amir Ball after ball bowled to him fast in swingers in an attempt to caught him in the crease with a LBW but Ponting somehow managed to survive the lethalness of Amir.

It was a brilliant bowling display from the young Pakistani fast bowler.
