Mohammad Amir Viral Video: It has been more than 13 years since Pakistani cricket player Mohammad Amir was found guilty of ‘match-fixing’ in 2010, leading to his 5-year ban from the cricketing world. But fans, it seems, have no intention to let the ‘embarrassing past’ of the player go. Recently, a video surfaced online, where a few fans began to chant ‘fixer’ as soon as Amir entered the ground to play in the Pakistan Super League. The incident reportedly took place on March 11, during the Quetta Gladiators vs Lahore Qalandars match being played at Karachi’s National Stadium. 

Reacting to the crowd’s reaction, the cricketer was quick to lose his calm as he responded with a ‘Ghar Se Yahi Seekh Ke Aate Ho?’ (Is this what you learned at your home?). The video of the same instantly went viral and left people reacting. Amir was playing for Quetta Gladiators, for which the cricketer was on his way towards the ground when the incident unfolded. 

Amir was reportedly charged for match-fixing, where he was to deliberately bowl ‘no-balls’. The matter took place during the Pakistan Test tour of England. Apart from Amir, players Salman Butt and Mohammad Asif were also part of the controversy, leading to them getting ‘debarred’ from playing cricket. After the ban was lifted, Amir made his comeback in 2016, however, the fans never made him forget the mistake he made years back.
