They trusted me and brought me back, and I feel a certain pressure to live up to that trust.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on his return, Amir likened it to his debut series, saying, \u201cI feel like I\u2019m making my debut all over again. Representing your country is a unique experience, and after almost four years away, this feels like a new beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Amir also shared that his comeback is aligned with the team\u2019s short-term goal of winning the upcoming World Cup. He believes the team has made significant progress by reaching the semi-finals and finals of recent tournaments, and he aims to help them cross the final hurdle to victory.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI came in 2009 for the first time, and Pakistan became the world champions. Then we played the 2017 Champions Trophy final, we became champions. PCB management brought me back with a short term goal that is the World Cup,\u201d Amir stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause the Pakistani team has played semi-final and final in recent tournaments, there is a line that we have to cross [winning the tournament], if that is achieved, for me, it would be a privilege that I was part of that team,\u201d he further added.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding his fitness, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bolnews.com\/sports\/2024\/03\/shahid-afridi-believes-that-mohammad-amir-has-potential-for-international-comeback\/\">Amir<\/a> asserted that he is in better shape now than he was in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think my fitness level is much better than it was in 2019 because I\u2019m feeling fitter than I ever did in recent years. If you are not fit, you cannot express yourself in the ground, no matter how many skills do you have. I believe with the fitness level I have right, I can contribute greatly to the team,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<div class=\"alsoread\">\n<h4 class=\"text-uppercase mb-10 mt-20 fs-18\">Also Read<\/h4>\n<div class=\"post-box sty22\">\n<div class=\"post-frame js-ratioHtP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bolnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/FotoJet-26-2-254x144.jpg\" alt=\"Mohammad Amir warned by PCB for betting company endorsement\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<h5 class=\"title\">Mohammad Amir warned by PCB for betting company endorsement<\/h5>\n<p>Mohammad Amir gets warning from PCB for endorsing betting company.
