Imad made his international debut in 2015 against Zimbabwe. Over the course of his career, he scored 1540 international runs and took 117 international wickets. He also served as the vice-captain when Pakistan won the ICC Champions Trophy in 2017.
Amir too was a crucial part of that winning team, delivering a standout performance in the final against India—one of the defining moments in his career. Across 159 matches, the searing left-arm quick scalped 271 wickets in all formats for Pakistan.
Imad announced his retirement via social media on Friday. The following day, a statement from the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) confirmed the retirements of both Imad and Amir.
