Months after calling Abhishek Sharma a slogger, Mohammad Amir visibly took a U-turn to explain his previous comments. In a latest interaction, the 34-year-old has claimed that because of the difference in languages, the meaning of his comments on Abhishek Sharma sounded the wrong way.
It has been around eight to nine months since Mohammad Amir labelled Abhishek as a slogger. In English, slogger means a batter who tries to swing at every ball. Amir's comment on Abhishek Sharma sparked a widespread controversy at that time, as the left-hander is a designated opener, not a lower-order batter.
Mohammad Amir takes a U-turn on his previous comment
"English me usko slogging kehte hai, lekin Urdu me agar aap usko dekho to usko kehte hai chalana. Wo (Abhishek) bohot chalata hai, rukta to hai nahi. Mere kehne ka matlab yahi tha ki wo har ball chalata hai (In English, it is called slogging (reckless batting). But in Urdu, it is called hitting. He hits a lot. He doesn't stop. What I mean to say is that he hits a lot)," Amir told Mr Cricket UAE.
